    Black History Month Review

    Black History Month Review

    #ColourOutTheBox podcast, where we discuss Creativity, Life and Culture…… Mo is Joined by co-host Jay.
     
    On the podcast we discuss, Black History Month, we talk about how the corporate/ work world is acknowledging Black History Month in the UK this year. Our thoughts on Channel 4 Black To Front programme schedule, including the reality show Highlife and the different types of representation on TV. We explore the question of do we need a Black History Month going forward?
    We talk about our actives and events we have attended, including: Film screening for “The Harder They Fall” staring Idris Elba, Jonathan Majors and Regina King. The Black Pound Day pop-up shop, Black Owned Hackney Market. Supporting Black Owned business, especially outside of food and beauty. A quick diversion into cultural appropriation, but we also take the opportunity to highlight Black talent. As mentioned on the podcast: @MNEK Twitter Thread of Black British Women artists: https://twitter.com/MNEK/status/1446391887368183813?s=20

    This week it is a music conversation, we asked “Is it time to retire the likes of Biggie and Tupac from the greatest of all time conversation?” Could someone really dethrone the legend of Whitney Houston or compete vocally with Mariah (no middle name) Carey?

The community around Black Radio, why we miss Choice FM and highlighting new platforms such as No Signal online radio. Initial thoughts on Cheryl Cole hosting an RnB show.
