Have you been touched by the recent events shaping a new wave of the Black Lives Matter movement? Are you a musician or DJ looking for ways to be an ally? Are you interested in the history of racism and how it got us to where we are today?
In the wake of the recent protests and re-ignition of the Black Lives Matter movement, we explore how the music industry can tackle and identify racism, and how it can find the right voice in the fight against inequality.Our very special guests, Dr Rueben Brock and Dr Lambros Fatsis, kindly gave us their time and considerable expertise to help us identify the right questions, and find answers. They have some amazing knowledge and insight into the fundamental issues at play - how racism is embedded in the capitalist system, and how race issues manifest in the music industry particularly. Whatever your personal stance, opinion or position on race, racism, and racism in music, this episode is crammed full of things we can all learn from.
