Greetings Easton Citizen,
This is an ideas development project, run by Firstborn Creatives in partnership
with Knowle
West Media Centre and
Calling the Shots.
The theme of the project is "Passport to....", inspired by the 1949 Ealing comedy, 'Passport to Pimlico'. In this film the London borough of Pimlico is revealed to be an independent state, after an ancient document is discovered that proves it to be foreign territory.
We will be running workshops with groups in Easton, Bristol based on the central question:
"How would you like to see things if Easton
became an independent state?"
Come along to the first session at Easton Community
Centre on June 27th at 7.15pm, to find out how you can get involved. ALL AGES
ARE WELCOME!
We will be running 5 sessions with a number of groups before the summer holidays,
and then another 5 to be run before December with the same groups, after exchanging
ideas with Knowle West and Calling The Shots.
The project is to look for ways of working with the many voices and creative
people of Easton and Knowle West, to develop workable ideas into a mainstream
media production.
Join in the chat forum and give your opinions.
- What about education, jobs, faith and religion, crime
and punishment, youth, elders?
- What about your currency, your immigration or even
emmigration policy?
- What about culture, arts and creativity, censorship?
- Will Easton have a leader or will in be a co-operative?
- How will decisions be made?
So what do you say?
You can also email us at; indy_easton@yahoo.co.uk
Will be great meeting with you, fellow Citizen!

hello wall | From:
rob | if easton was its own country, i would make sure the park at the back of the community centre had a decent football pitch!!!! | From:
naphtali | I think the idea is gert lush! | From:
nezza | how about a local exchange trading scheme? then everyone would have time and skills to barter if they don't have money. | From:
LETS | would that mean if you needed your house painted but had no money, you could ask someone to do it if you did them a job in exchange? sounds cool to me! | From:
fitzroy | If we don't like someone can we have them deported outside our state?
Will we have free trade or can we ban trade from Tesco's into the area? | From:
Gethin | I want more for young people to do in the area. Places to hang out, that are safe and fun. | From:
Yazza | There's a nightmare family lives down my road I would like to get thrown out if Easton was a country. They'd be bad for our image! | From:
fitzroy | Is there another way to deal with this family? Maybe our Easton education system and citizenship would mean we could incorporate them better, or relieve their pressures. Our Easton utopia? Or well yeah, just chuck em out otherwise. Send them to Clifton, like criminals were sent to Barbadoes and Australia once upon a time. | From:
Lightworks | hope easton assembly more effective than welsh assembly.. | From:
