An activist, community organiser and co-founder of UK Black Pride – the world's largest free pride event for LGBTQIA+ Black and POC – our guest this week is a tireless advocate for intersectional justice. Lady Phyll is on The Pieces!
Known for her unapologetic approach to activism, Lady Phyll made headlines when she rejected an MBE, refusing to accept an honour tied to Britain's colonial legacy. She has spent decades building movements, challenging systemic oppression, and creating spaces of joy and resistance for communities facing discrimination.
On this episode of The Pieces, Bimini and Phyll dive deep into how transphobia is a deliberate distraction from real issues like poverty, homelessness and wealth hoarding. They also talk about the importance of being an "accomplice" rather than just an "ally".
They also discuss Phyll’s earliest experiences with racism, the resistance and death threats she faced when founding UK Black Pride, the commercialisation of Pride, the urgent need for better funding in education and why coalition-building across marginalised communities is essential for revolution.
