SUMMARY:Bluecoat: Talking Culture: Public Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Talking Culture is a series of friendly discussions where curio
 us people can come together to think\, talk\, and explore today’s major 
 issues. The next session will take place on Thu 4 Jun\, and will reflect o
 n the events that led up to the Grenfell Tower Fire.\n\n‘Justice Delayed
  is Justice Denied’: The Grenfell Tower Fire\n\nAround seven months befo
 re the Grenfell Tower fire\, a group of residents wrote in a blog post tha
 t:\n\n“Only a catastrophic event will expose the ineptitude and incompet
 ence of our landlord\, Kensington and Chelsea Tenant Management Organisati
 on (KCTMO)… It is our conviction that a serious fire in a tower block or
  similar high-density residential property is the most likely reason that 
 those who wield power at the KCTMO will be found out and brought to justic
 e!”\n\nThis was not the first time residents had pleaded for safer housi
 ng conditions\, and the events of 14 June 2017 sadly proved them right. Wh
 en it comes to justice\, however\, nearly nine years on\, it has yet to be
  served.\n\nIn this discussion\, we will reflect together on the events th
 at led up to the fire and consider why accountability remains difficult in
  the current context. Themes including social housing\, safety\, necropoli
 tics\, and who does (or does not) have a voice in political processes will
  be explored. Attendees are also welcome to voice their own thoughts and b
 ring along any themes of interest\, but no prior knowledge is necessary.\n
 \nFree\, booking required\n\nBook now: https://www.thebluecoat.org.uk/what
