2006 - Life in Sparkhill Day

This event focussed on an area of Birmingham called Sparkhill. The young people discussed what its like to live as a Christian or a Muslim in an inner-city area that is quite poor and where the majority of the population are Muslims. Having discovered how they felt about living here they worked in the afternoon to produce a video (with the help of the BBC), a rap and an art installation.
