She’s a BBC 1Xtra and Selector Radio powerhouse and the brains behind the Future Bounce parties and record label and she brings the fire in some beautiful ways.

By empowerment, Food for thought, herstory, NEWS, poetry, Politics, writing

It’s been an intense few weeks finding black people and people of colour landed squarely in the middle of another pandemic – racism. Something has to give. Something has to change. When conversation fails me, I turn to poetry. Here’s a poem I wrote earlier about some of my experiences – it’s not finished yet. I will continue to tweak until it’s right.

By France, french speaking, herstory, Interviews, Manchester, NEWS, quarantine

On the 28th of April – a friend of mine (Facebook pseudo Candy Mac Crevure) messaged me to say that she had suggested me as a guest on Joachim Garraud’s daily show online.

#ONAIR – INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY GUEST SHOW ON MCR:LIVE 08/03/2018

By empowerment, feminism, herstory, Manchester, NEWS, RADIO

Here is the very wonderful and very cheeky and all too short debut guest show that I produced, curated and presented for MCR:Live on International Women’s Day.
