SUMMARY:Keynote presentation at AoMO International Conference  Liverpool
DESCRIPTION:Voicing Activism\nFrankie Armstrong – Keynote talk\nat AOMO Conference\, Liverpool \, Thursday 18th August \nHistory and Future of The Art of Management and Organization Conference \n \nWhy is it we talk about a people\, an oppressed minority\, or indeed an oppressed majority (women) “finding their voice”? \nFrom the suffragettes\, through the anti-apartheid movement and Greenham Common and many other political movements\, it is raising their voices together that has helped them both to keep in the struggle and to be heard. It may be an individual voice such as Victor Hara in Chile\, or the collective voices of the children of Soweto\, but it is the quality of the voice that called to Frankie. It was Pete Seeger in the 1950s that stirred Frankie into this realisation\, with songs that spoke to both the head and the heart. \nSince then she has been singing songs that are an expression of working people\, songs from women’s lives\, songs of people struggling against oppression\, of daughters against tyrannical fathers (in the folk tradition)\, and about the environment or social inequality. \nIn 1975\, she began running voice workshops. Her teaching is aimed at helping others find the same sense of energy and power of communication that she experienced as a solo singer. \nIn her keynote presentation\, she’ll also speak about her feeling that the beauty and power expressed through voice can engage the artistry available to all of us. \nWhy is it we talk about a people\, an oppressed minority\, or indeed an oppressed majority (women) “finding their voice”? \nFrom the suffragettes\, through the anti-apartheid movement and Greenham Common and many other political movements\, it is raising their voices together that has helped them both to keep in the struggle and to be heard.

SUMMARY:Workshop at AOMO Conference
DESCRIPTION:Finding Our Voices as Activists\nWorkshop – with Frankie Armstrong and Darien Pritchard\nat AOMO Conference\, Liverpool\, Thursday 18th August \nHistory and Future of The Art of Management and Organization Conference \n \nHow can we keep our energy and our commitment to activism going at a time such as this? By raising our voices together. \nWe need a belief in our right to make ourselves heard\, and we need to find a full-bodied voice that matches our desire to be heard. This workshop is designed to help everyone (regardless of past experience) to find a free\, powerful and expressive voice. Frankie\, a singer and voice teacher\, will be joined by her partner Darien Pritchard\, a massage and flexibility teacher\, to explore how using the body and breath contribute to finding a vibrant voice\, combining ease with power. \nWe aim to create an enjoyable\, supportive \,nonjudgemental atmosphere – with the emphasis on exploration\, discovery and play – not “getting it right”. No prior experience is required\, just wear loose comfortable clothes for gentle exercises\, and bring a water bottle and an open heart and mind. \nFrankie has been helping people to ‘find’ their voices for 47 years\, as well as being a singer in the peace\, women’s and social justice movements since the 1960s. \nWorkshop: 10am to 1pm\, 18th August 2022 \nTickets: £50 \nFor further information and Bookings: please contact Darien Pritchard darien.pritchard@gmail.com
