On Wednesday 28 September, we hosted the film screening of Ken Loach film ‘It’s a Free World’ followed by tea, biscuits, and thought-provoking discussion! It was a lovely event that witnessed a great participation. Thank you to all that attended, and we look forward to welcoming you to our next screening!
On Wed 16 Feb 2022, RR was delighted to host the film screening and post-screening discussion of Thou Shalt Not Hate. The film talks about Simone, a renowned surgeon and the son of a Holocaust survivor, who rushes to the scene of a hit-and-run, but when he sees a Nazi tattoo on the victim’s chest, he leaves the man to die violating his Hippocratic Oath as a doctor.
In partnership with Culture Entanglement, Rethink Rebuild Society hosted two community discussions in Arabic about TED Talks. On Sunday 28th November, Dr Nada Albunni talked about the idea behind TED Talks and how important it is for the Arab communities to get involved in this project which is a good way to learn about key issues being discussed in world nowadays.
On Monday 3 May, 2021 at 6:00 PM, RR hosted an online session entitled “Islamic Arts and the Holy Qur‘ān”. The information session was delivered by Syrian artist and calligrapher Abdullah Al-Anezi who talked about the history of Arabic calligraphy especially in relation to the writing of the Muṣḥaf (Holy Qurān).
In January and February 2021, RR hosted four sessions about living in the UK. The sessions focused on UK life, history and culture and the basic information needed to pass the Life in the United Kingdom test.
