Continuing the Black History Month celebration of young artists in our community, we shine the spotlight on a young Hip Hop artist with a unique sound and style- Jordan Adetunji. Jordan has been featured on BBC and has been a nominee for the Urban Awards "One to Watch". He is currently a nominee for an Oh Yeah Contender award in the 2020 Northern Ireland Music Prize and has released videos on huge UK platforms such as GRM Daily and New Music Friday's Playlist. We hope you enjoy this candid conversation with Jordan.

In today's episode, we continue celebrating Black History Month in the UK by spotlighting some of our young artists in the community doing amazing things to empower not only themselves but others through their art! Meet Macy, Esther, Anesu, Dena and Faith Child and hear their stories!

Hey Friends! It's October and that means it's Black History Month in the UK and some European countries. In this episode, the ladies discuss whether Black History Month is needed or not; what Black History means to them...if it means anything and what role (if any) they think Black History plays in the UK/ Global history. Join us!

UK UnMute Podcast's Ep 8 "Being Raised with Dual Cultures!" - The hosts spoke with Calanthia Lilburn and Natalya Ricketts, two bi-racial and dual-culture guests. Calanthia is a mother and Natalya is a teenager soon off to university. They discuss their previous and current experiences growing up with dual cultures in Northern Ireland. How much has changed and how much remains the same? Listen in!

Here's a "wee" Culture Shock Bonus for you! We hope you enjoyed the last episode and this extra bit we thought we'd share as well!

Cultural diversity is a great opportunity to learn about your neighbour, a community, your colleague or your mate! In today's episode, the ladies discuss their experiences with Culture Shock primarily within a Northern Irish context.

This episode is a follow up to Episode 4 "The BLM- ALM Debate". The ladies engage with two members of the Brown family (Siobhan & Aaron) who took to Facebook during the Lock-down in Northern Ireland to engage friends and strangers in discussions around BLM. Also joining in the discussion, Pastor Owen Crane who leads the Christian Fellowship Church in Northern Ireland. Pastor Crane not only reads from the book of Revelations...but he's had some of his own!

Can we explore solutions to the BLM ALM Debate?

*Trigger warning, contains discussion on gender-based violence* 

This episode was specially recorded to create awareness of Women's Month in South Africa which is August, as well as speak to the gender-based violence that has unfortunately been increasing in the country. UK UnMute thought it prudent to raise the volume on this issue and have decided to air this episode before the conclusion of our two part BLM discussion- "BLM- Exploring Solutions" which will be aired on Friday 28th, August 2020.
