Aaron is a young man who describes himself as an unapologetically conservative. In a time of echo chambers, it is important to have these conversations. He believes in individualism above collective politics which epitomises current politics.
Blackness can be likened to a political ideology, yet it isn't, conservatism and blackness are exclusive, being conservative in the generation of liberalism/illiberalism is a brave ideology to live by. Aaron believes our skin colour shouldn't define our politics, as an independent and free thinker, he champions facts over feelings, morality over immorality and strongly believes in family.
The young man who is brave to speak out about his views, he is now a part of Turning Point UK
thank you, Aaron!

Model, Tik Tok superstar and activist Allegria Dilecarta, is going to take the world by storm. After being subject to racial abuse on Tik Tok, she blew up and became viral. Usually, with fame, most become arrogant and forget their mission. She has not, she actively uses her platform to spread the message of being pro-black. Unapologetically pro-black with her music taste that takes us back to a time where music held meaning and passion.
We spoke about her time on Tik Tok, black activists and of her icons, the immeasurable TUPAC.
A young activist who has the world at her feet and will continue to do great things! Thank you so much!

I first met Zack when I was around 19-20 years old through an acting course. He was an engaging teacher and a man I aspired to be in personality, ethics and values. Zack now has followed that into politics.
Zack endeavours to create an inclusive world, where the idea is not radical but simply pragmatic. He identifies as a gay Jewish man, and believes that whilst he has faced abuse, he holds a view on the world that will not stop his ascent to a better world!

@letztalk1st a couple married for 10 years show us the importance of a strong and stable nuclear black family. They created their platform in the wake of George Floyd's unfortunate death with the objective to encourage dialogue and have since allowed it to be a space where everyone can listen and Tune in.

On June 25th 2020, via Instagram live, I had a fantastic conversation with Lavinya Stennett, Founder and CEO of The Black Curriculum.
We spoke about the importance of the black curriculum, at such a time the importance of black history is prevalent. The work Lavinya is doing is key to changing the tide for the black British community. Black History is quite simply put British History, to ignore the importance of black people in British history is a grave injustice.
Through my own work with my masters and the teaching I have done, I see the power that showing black children and even non-black children that our history is more than slaves and chains has a revolutionary effect on children. Our history is doomed to repeat itself if we don't confront the past. I was humbled by the fact I shared such a stage.
I can't wait to work with The Black Curriculum in the future!
