SUMMARY:Solidarity Vigil outside the U.S. Embassy in Malta
DESCRIPTION:Solidarity vigil outside the Embassy of the United States of America to Malta. We encourage you to wear black. \nWe the undersigned groups and individuals\, concerned about the growing military escalation in the Mediterranean region\, stand here today to deliver our message to the government and people of the United States of America. \nThe catastrophic situation in Gaza\, in Lebanon and the Middle East Region today was not inevitable. The failure to prevent this catastrophe is a horrifying failure of global and western diplomacy\, and will go down on history as one of humanity’s most shameful chapters since the second world war. Further deterioration may still be avoided. \nRecalling the letter sent on 13 October 2024 by the United States Government\, exhorting the Government of Israel to take concrete measures to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Gaza over the following 30 days\, or face a reduction in the military support being funded by the United States taxpayer; \nRecalling the succession of warnings by the UN rapporteur\, by international bodies and by the United States Government of the possibility that war crimes were being committed by Israel in Gaza; \nWe note with the deepest concern that the humanitarian situation has continued to deteriorate further\, most critically in northern Gaza. \nWe further note that the deadline of 12 November\, set by the Government of the United States\, has come and gone\, however the concerns that were raised repeatedly by the United States Government have not yet been translated into meaningful action. \nWe urge you to take concrete steps to stop facilitating\, enabling\, and further aggravating the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe through the supply of weapons and military hardware to the region.

SUMMARY:FEJN KONTU?! - Performance "Għeruq Imħabblin"
DESCRIPTION:“Għeruq Imħabblin”\, a site-specific performance created and choreographed by Chakib Zidi\, founder of @artivist_dance_theater_coll specifically for the “Fejn Kontu” exhibition. \nThe piece delves into the narratives of queer\, women and refugee communities\, using dance and music as a medium to express the complexities of love\, resilience\, and identity in the face of displacement and marginalization. \nThe performance is rooted in themes of cultural belonging and human rights\, aiming to give voice to those often silenced or overlooked. The collective\, founded by Zidi\, is known for its commitment to using art as a form of activism\, shedding light on social justice issues. This work not only celebrates diversity but also calls for solidarity and understanding. \nChoreographed and directed by: Chakib Zidi in collaboration with:\n– Dancers: Sarah Sammut\, Sarah Vella\, Nicole Zammit\, Lucy Keenan\n– Performers/Musicians: Sebastián Ortiz\, Ana Milena Lozada Avella\n– Music: SONGAIA\, Ana Milena Lozada Avella\, Sebastián Ortiz\, René Junior Juan Gaia. \nLocation: Società Dante Alighieri\, 134 Old Bakery Street\, Valletta. \n****** \n“Għeruq Imħabblin”\, prestazzjoni maħsuba għal spazju partikolari\, ġiet maħluqa b’koreografija ta’ Chakib Zidi\, il-fundatur tal-Artivist Dance Theatre Collective\, speċifikament għall-wirja “FEJN KONTU?! – 30 Sena ta’ Attiviżmu”. \nDan ix-xogħol jidħol fin-narrattivi tal-komunitajiet queer\, u l-komunitajiet tan-nisa u r-refuġjati\, billi juża ż-żfin u l-mużika bħala mezzi li jesprimu l-kumplessitajiet tal-imħabba\, ir-reżiljenza u l-identità fid-dawl tal-ispostament u l-emarġinazzjoni. \nIl-prestazzjoni ssib l-għeruq tagħha fit-temi tal-appartenenza kulturali u d-drittijiet tal-bniedem\, bil-għan li tagħti vuċi lil dawk li spiss jiġu msikkta jew injorati. Il-kollettiv\, imwaqqaf minn Zidi\, huwa magħruf għall-impenn tiegħu biex juża l-arti bħala forma ta’ attiviżmu\, u dan jitfa’ dawl fuq kwistjonijiet ta’ ġustizzja soċjali. Dan ix-xogħol mhux biss jiċċelebra d-diversità iżda jitlob ukoll li wieħed jifhem u juri solidarjetà. \nKoreografija u direzzjoni ta’: Chakib Zidi\, b’kollaborazzjoni ma’:\n– Żeffiena: Sarah Sammut\, Sarah Vella\, Nicole Zammit\, Lucy Keenan\n– Artisti/Mużiċisti: Sebastián Ortiz\, Ana Milena Lozada Avella\n– Mużika: SONGAIA\, Ana Milena Lozada Avella\, Sebastián Ortiz\, René Junior\, Juan Gaia. \nNhar il-Ħadd 17 ta’ Novembru fis-6pm\, ġewwa Società Dante Alighieri\, 134 Triq l-Ifran\, Valletta.

SUMMARY:Screening of 'Herself'
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of ‘Herself’ on 20th November at 18:30\, in the lead up to the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. \nThe 2020 film\, directed by Phyllida Lloyd\, follows Sandra\, a single mother who leaves and moves away from her abusive partner. She struggles to move on independently with her two young daughters\, but is determined to find her own way. The film’s title may suggest that Sandra ends up building her future alone\, however this impactful story explores how she succeeds with the help of others. \nAfter the screening\, we will have a brief discussion about the film and relating to violence against women in the local context\, followed by some drinks and nibbles. \nEntrance is free\, and you are welcome to bring snacks or purchase drinks from the bar! \n\nSee you there!
