Meeting notes 06/11/08

Present: Susannah, Steve, Chris

These notes are a bit creative as the meeting wasn't this formal! I've added question marks where I'm retrospectively assigning actions, or just not sure.

What	Actions arising
What next for local groups:
Meersbrook seems to be going well. They've arranged a followup meal at the Bohemian in a couple of weeks for anyone interested (?bring food/wine).	Get info up on the website. (Heather/Craig & Chris?)
Nether edge: All set for next one. Steve and Chris both have a copies of the DVD. Steve is considering running a further three set of filmnights after these.	Chris to bring screen and DVD player. Steve to sort out a projector. Steve to discuss with Jenny?
Burngreave: Susannah has copy of DVD (but Chris wants to borrow it.) Unless more Burngreave people are willing to commit then Susannah has no immediate plans to continue.
Publicity: Still have loads of flyers to shift. Docfest and Bluemoon worth topping up.	Susannah to take and deposit flyers.
General follow-up ideas for this coordinating group
Set up discussion forum which can be used by anyone inc. local groups	Chris is working on this.
Allow other people to join the coordinating group if they ask to do so.	No action - just screen out troublemakers.
Organise a speaker to speak in Sheffield eg. Nafeez Ahmed - he's recently spoken in London	(Chris has contacted him, no answer yet.)
Organise a longer event - eg. a whole a day, probably in January. This could include a speaker as described above. Consider using the Quaker space?	Discuss again at next meeting
Offer an evening screening/talk for Shebeen (Sheffield Black & Ethnic Minority Environment Network.)
Support film-nights in other areas where there is interest eg. S11.
Consider how to achieve inclusivity - both in terms of ethnic minorities and also in terms of economically marginalised groups who will suffer first. Don't just hobnob with the council!

DONM: 1 Dec / 3 Dec / 4 Dec. Please say when you can make a meeting.
