Real Talk Discussion Groups

Real Talk is a discussion group aimed to enable young people from all over the city to take part in critical discourse of historical and current issues that affect young people in the society.

Real Talk is all about creating spaces for young people which they can utilize as a foundation where they can meet, discuss, network, organise and create opportunities for themselves as well as other young people that live within the local community.

The co-coordinator of the group is Craig Pinkney

In conjunction with Bro Sis/Urban Living and Sankofa Youth Academy, Real Talk delivered a session on Equality and diversity on Saturday 29th may 2010 from 1-4pm @ the Sankofa Centre.

The session explored young people’s views around the idea of Equal opportunities in inner city Birmingham, whether young people thought equal opportunities existed and who they thought the idea around equal opportunities applied to. The session also looked at some of the issues around racism and how young people felt about it, and whether it was an issue that they experienced in their everyday lives.

Dates for the next session will be posted on the web site and Facebook.
