SUMMARY:Whose Knowledge Matters
DESCRIPTION:Whose knowledge matters when we represent the city? Who decides what land to protect or destroy\, whose heritage to celebrate\, whose stories to tell and who gets ‘seen’ in the visual and spatial record of the city? This exhibition presents a series of counter-maps to explore different histories and residents’ knowledge from across Greater Manchester. Maps are only one way of seeing the city\, just as statues and plaques represent a mere fraction of our history and heritage in our diverse and divergent urban spaces. Counter-maps trouble and disrupt formal representations of the city which map physical locations but blank residents’ memories\, hopes and ideas. \nThis exhibition will present different kinds of maps to show what matters to residents of Greater Manchester\, produced as part of a collaborative research process with local groups. We aim to provoke reflection on whose knowledge matters in the context of a vast and rapidly changing urban landscape. \nYou can take part by interacting with the exhibition to tell us what histories\, heritage\, protests and people matter to you and how these can be better valued\, or coming to one of our events #KnowledgeMattersGM \nFree – please drop in

SUMMARY:Women of Aktion
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition sharing the story of the German Revolution 1918 and reclaiming the voices of the female revolutionaries who have\, until now\, been hidden from the official narrative. In November 1918\, Germany erupted with a revolution which led to the establishment of the first democracy on German soil\, the end of oppressive censorship\, and the end of the war. \nAll across Germany\, people took to the streets demanding peace\, bread and a new political system\, and among them were many women. This exhibition uncovers the hidden voices of the female revolutionaries and shares their eyewitness accounts. What kind of a world did they want and how did they seek to achieve it? Remembering women’s anti-war protest and revolutionary roles are important for activism today to give women back their radical history and remind us that political gains have never been wrested from the powerful and privileged without vocal\, organised pressure and collective action\, and that nothing has been won or defended without persistence\, often over many decades. \nFree- please drop in

SUMMARY:Ballads and Songs of Peterloo\, with Dr Alison Morgan
DESCRIPTION:Ballads and Songs of Peterloo by Dr Alison Morgan is based on her unique collection of more than seventy poems and ballads which highlight the outrage\, grief\, defiance and resolution felt by labouring-class people in the immediate aftermath of the Peterloo Massacre in which eighteen people were killed and more than 600 injured as they listened to the radical Henry Hunt speak on the need for electoral reform. \nAlison’s talk focuses on a selection of these poems and songs which were circulated in radical journals and performed at markets and in taverns\, highlighting how they aimed to keep a true record of the day in the public consciousness and counter the official government narrative. The talk will be illustrated by audio recordings from musicians who have worked with Alison to bring these important and entertaining songs to life once more. \nFree – please drop in \n \n
