NCLA: SJ Kim - This Part is Silent | Culture Lab, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK
May 15, 2025 (UTC+0)
Newcastle
Memoir: This Part is Silent - A Life Between Cultures. Longlisted for the 2025 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction 'SJ Kim’s... lyricism hides a razorblade: I haven’t read a more beautiful, more raging and anguished account of racism and female erasure. It’s a book about finding a toehold in a world that would rather you slipped and fell. It's a book about survival and unbelonging. It is necessary reading.' - Neel MukherjeeIn this daring and moving memoir, Korean-born SJ Kim, who was raised in the American South, probes her experiences as a writer, scholar, and daughter to confront the silences she finds in the world. With curiosity and sensitivity, she writes letters to the institutions of the state and academia that simultaneously support and fail her. Interspersed with her intimate accounts of immigration experiences, and interrogations of rising anti-Black and anti-Asian racism, she considers the silences between generations―especially within the Asian diaspora in the West―as she finds her way back to her own family during the pandemic lockdown. Embracing the possibilities and impossibilities of language, Kim rejoices in the similes of Korean, her mother tongue, and draws inspiration from K-dramas and writers who sustain her, including Yusef Komunyakaa, Don Mee Choi, Toni Morrison, and Theresa Hak Kyung Cha. SJ Kim is the author of This Part Is Silent, longlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction. Her writing on racial, gendered, institutional and political violence has appeared in Wasafiri, Oxford American, and The Hanok Review among other publications. She resides in the UK and teaches creative writing at the University of Warwick. Preti Taneja is Professor of World Literature and Creative Writing at Newcastle University.

Friday 16th May | 7pm Imperium: The Cicero Plays This two-part event starts with actors coming together to read and discuss scenes from the play Imperium, based on the Cicero trilogy by Robert Harris, adapted by Mike Poulton. As they delve into the scenes they discover a story of natural humanity, and good laws versus military ambition at a time in history when the political values and certainties of governments were overwhelmed by a world in turmoil. Does that sound familiar? The second part brings together a panel of speakers chaired by Baroness Joyce Quin to discuss some of the issues the actors have raised. The panel includes Chi Onwurah, Labour MP, Newcastle Central and West and Dr Kathryn Tempest, Lecturer in Roman History at The School of Archaeology and Ancient History, University of Leicester.

The Fabulously Rich Live at New Maritime | New Maritime Beer Company
May 16, 2025 (UTC-4)
Newcastle
“I was very snobby about cover bands. I had never gone to see one before in my life, for anybody. I seen three while researching the book….I did a couple of things out east with The Fabulously Rich from Charlottetown who are hands down the best of any of them I’ve seen. Completely. And Fully.” -Michael Barclay (Author, The Never-Ending Present: the Story of Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip) The Fabulously Rich was formed in 2016 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island as a live tribute to The Tragically Hip. The band consists of lifelong friends and former high school bandmates, including Dennis, Trevor, and Greg, who began their music careers in the 90s with their rock and roll/grunge band, Adam's Eve. The idea to pay tribute to The Tragically Hip came about when news broke that the band's frontman, Gord Downie, had been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. The original plan was to reunite and perform a one-night tribute to the iconic Canadian band that they all loved and frequently covered in their sets. In addition to honouring The Tragically Hip, The Fabulously Rich also takes pride in supporting local charities through their performances and donations. They consider it an incredible privilege and honour to bring the passion and connection of The Tragically Hip's music and live show experience to their loyal fanbase across Canada and around the world. *Standing room show
