Border Crossings

Mapping Brixton through Music


Listen Later

As part of the 2021-22 ORIGINS Festival, Border Crossings brings Indigenous Australian musician Jessie Lloyd to Brixton.  Famous for her MISSION SONGS project, which gathered the music of Indigenous Elders, Jessie will be applying her unique approach to the Brixton community, as they remember their recent history. This podcast features some of Jessie's music, and a conversation between her and leading Indigenous thinker Prof. Marcia Langton.  From Brixton, Lee Jasper adds his passionate perspective on the project's value.

Originally planned for 2021 but postponed because of Covid, the project will take place from late September to the end of October 2022.

Part of the UK-Australia Season 2021-22.  

Border Crossings ORIGINS Festival is supported by Arts Council England.
