Social Cohesion: Extreme Measures or Simple Steps?

What has Romeo and Juliet got to do with communities in Dudley? In this film Linden Walcott Burton explores the link, drawing on what he learnt from his many months working with the Birmingham Royal Ballet to play the role of Tybalt. You may have seen him in Channel 4's Ballet Changed my Life. www.podnosh.com

Hello JD - what do you think of the case Linden is making?

Excellent, though it could have done with being three or four hours longer. Loved the quote; 'As families we don't sit together and eat enough, and as communities we don't sit together and eat enough.' Says it all really.

Hi ketlan, thanks for the comment. 3 or 4 hours would be a bit much for youtube - but there are dozens of people out there doing their bit.

Thanks for letting me know about this! I found it very informative, for all the political rhetoric, it takes a willingness to communicate at a grassroots level in the community for real change to occur.
