Welcome to ‘The I.S Paper’ a pilot project exploring the experiences of Black and minoritised cultural & creative groups and practitioners in the Royal Borough of Greenwich within the GCF. Focused on the three R’s, Roles, Responsibilities and Recognition. We’ve titled the project The IS paper,in honor of Ignatius Sancho, a Writer, composer, shopkeeper and abolitionist. Ignatius Sancho was celebrated in the late 18th-century as a man of letters, a social reformer and an acute observer of English life. He was an enslaved African who lived in Greenwich from 1731 to 1749. He was the first black man to vote in a British election.

This exhibition is a collation of images, videos and photographs used in social media for the protest movements in the UK, with a focus on disabled people, during this era of austerity. It shows the importance of citizen journalism when mainstream journalism is said to have ignored the voices of disabled people engaging in protests. This is a look back into the protests held in the last five years of Conservative Lib Dem Coalition government from 2010.
