Скачать или смотреть Usanii ni Ufundi _ Community Storytelling and the Art of History-ing

How do we build tools and skills that support communities in telling their own stories—on their own terms?

This panel conversation, held after the premiere of Usanii ni Ufundi, brings together cultural practitioners and storytellers committed to grounding history in local agency, artistry, and collaboration. The film itself celebrates the beauty and resilience of working alongside grassroots initiatives to co-create narratives that honour memory, identity, and place.

Panelists:
🔹 Julius Mutuku – Akamba Culture Centre and Museum (ACCM)
🔹 Stan Kiraga – Malindi District Cultural Association (MADCA)
🔹 Furuha Ruguru – Freelance writer and music journalist
🔹 Moderated by Mutanu Kyany’a – African Digital Heritage

Together, they explore:
🔸 What it means to share stories with rather than for communities
🔸 How specific skills or tools have shaped their work in cultural spaces
🔸 Their visions for a decolonial cultural infrastructure in Kenya
