 Festival of Anti-Racist and Decolonial Art\, followed by a round-table c
 onversation and Q&A. \n\nCultures of Anti-Racism in Latin America (CARLA
 ) is a project exploring how art practice can challenge racism. It is a 
 collaboration between researchers from the University of Manchester\, ac
 ademic partners in Argentina\, Brazil\, and Colombia\, and artists in th
 ose three countries. It resulted in a tri-lingual online exhibition cura
 ted by CARLA researchers featuring 21 artists and collectives and over 3
 0 artworks.\n\nThe documentary screened during the event focuses on CARL
 A's public Festival of Decolonial and Anti-Racist Art held in Manchester
 's Contact Theatre in April 2022 which featured many of the artists in p
 erson.\n\nIt is a unique opportunity to witness the work of artists from
  Latin America whose artistic practice aims at challenging racial discri
 mination in their home country. The aim of the event is to generate a co

 ound-table discussion with two guest speakers about the project and its 
 implications :\n\n- Dr Mónica G. Moreno Figueroa\, Senior Lecturer in So
 ciology and Fellow in Social Sciences at Downing College at the Universi
 ty of Cambridge and the International Advisor for the CARLA project.\n-

 anisation working towards raising the profile of black artists in the UK

 n\, for a Q&A session.\n\nThe conversation will be followed by a drinks
