SUMMARY:What kind of region do we want to live in? - book launch
DESCRIPTION:Against the backdrop of political disarray on the national and international scene… flourishing independence movements in Scotland and Wales… and a dry\, lumbering\, and often overlooked drift towards regional ‘devolution’ in England… we ask: what kind of region do we want to live in? \nThe ‘Same Skies Collective’ is a network of people across West Yorkshire\, passionate about helping to stir up debate and vision towards an inclusive and grassroots-led regional democracy* in this part of the world. \nWe invite you to join us for the launch of a new book\, co-written by a wide range of writers\, exploring ideas about the future of West Yorkshire. \nThe event will feature readings from some of the writers – and also look at other projects we’ve run since forming in 2015. These include a creative map-making project we took to many of the markets of West Yorkshire\, and a viral sticker campaign. We are also keen to hear from people interested in joining us for the next phase of this journey. \nDrinks and refreshments will be served from 6pm\, for a 6.30pm formal start. We will finish by 7.20pm\, if people need to be off – but you’re very welcome to stick around longer\, to talk and help us plot the way ahead. The event is free\, the books will be on sale at half-price\, and we’re grateful to Seedbed for their financial support for this venture. \nMore info on Same Skies at: https://wesharethesameskiesblog.wordpress.com/. For all press enquiries for this event\, please email: same.skies.wy@gmail.com. \n* We understand ‘regional democracy’ to be a counter-point to ‘regional devolution’: a citizen-led approach\, as opposed to something led by or even dictated from within the established political systems. \n
