Esyllt Sears, Mike Jackson & Tim Mackenzie-Smith
from The Green Man Podcast · host Green Man Festival
Visit the Einstein's Garden 'Human Library' with Welsh comedian, actor and podcaster, Esyllt Sears. At the Human Library you don’t read the books, you talk to them - and they talk back! Esyllt meets Mike Jackson, one of the founding members of Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners, a group of LGBT activists who fundraised for South Welsh miners and whose story was immortalised in the multi-award winning blockbuster ‘Pride’. Director Tim Mackenzie-Smith tells DJ Karl Bos how he made his film ‘Getting It Back: The Story of Cymande’. It’s a beautiful, soulful music documentary about the ‘lost’, almost-mythical, British funk band: a story of loss, prejudice, friendship, and killer bass lines.
