Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In postwar Britain, the rise of television as a new technology and cultural form transformed the political landscape, redefining the sites and styles of political communication and creating spaces for viewer participation. Grassroots organizations, like the British Anti-Apartheid Movement (AAM), leveraged television’s potential to foster new forms of presentation, perception, and civic participation.
In this event, Tal Zalmanovich will discuss her monograph, Broadcasting Apartheid: British Television and the Anti-Apartheid Campaign, 1950–1990, with Saul Dubow and Suzanne Franks, and Lucy McCann will describe how the AAM archive came into being.
