Tale of Two Cities. Series Producer.
I produced a series of three events exploring gentrification in the city taking place at Goldsmiths University; Bush Hall & Rich Mix: representing different corners of the city and in particular areas undergoing rapid gentrification.
A collaboration between Decolonising Our Minds and Take Back The City, Tale of Two Cities brought together young artists from across London to share their stories of the city. We celebrate art as the expression of resistance, but also art as the opportunity for respite and healing.
Performers included Big Zuu, Caleb Femi, Lex Amor and Mad Professor.
Co-Curators: Zahra Delilah and Zain Dada

"We Are Ghosts", Race, Class and Institutional Prejudice. Primary Author and Lead Researcher. (2018)
Dhelia developed and delivered Runnymede Trust and CLASS’ flagship Race and Class project, authoring “We Are Ghosts”, Race, Class and Institutional Prejudice. She conducted desk research and literature review, as well as extensive primary research, mostly with community groups in West London.
The report was covered in the Guardian by Kenan Malik and Faiza Shaheen. A Race and Class Messaging Toolkit was produced from the research, including two resources: “Messaging Checklist to Build Solidarity Across Difference” and “Everyday Guide to Challenge ‘Divide and Rule’ Narratives” to disseminate learnings from the report.
