Blvck Canvas Podcast

Although we've come to the end of the road, we actually have to let go. We believe ending on a high was the best way to leave Blvck Canvas TV. We've shared so many great memories and experiences together as a team and met so many inspiring people along the way. Although we've disbanded from Blvck Canvas, that doesn't mean you won't see us in some shape or form soon. You can still watch and listen to our content on YouTube and all streaming platforms (for our podcast). Thank you to all of our guests, production teams, supporters, viewers/listeners and even the haters. Blvck Canvas wouldn't be here today without YOU!And remember: Free Palestine, Free Congo, Free Sudan Thank you.

This week, we come to you live from the 2024 Green Party Conference in Manchester. The conference is an annual gathering of members and supporters of the Party to discuss policies, strategies and elect party leaders (when necessary).

This week’s episode is dedicated to the phrase “I told you so” as we respond to Kier Starmer’s “budget warning” or whatever that speech was this week. Is another 4 years of austerity really the answer to saving the British economy? And where does one hide a £22 BILLION black hole?… asking for a friend. We also discuss the importance of remembering the history of Notting Hill Carnival and our experience attending the first Black Ballad Weekender. In the Spotlight: Black Ballad - UK-based lifestyle platform that seeks to tell the human experience through the eyes of black British women. Become a member today here.

This week, we discuss the latest developments in Palestine, including the UK, French and American peace talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and what this REALLY means for Palestinian's social, economic and political future. We also discuss Kamala Harris and her "celebrity-certified" presidential campaign. Will Kamala help Palestine and Black women as President of the US?* *Spoiler alert...no.

We're extremely exhausted, so this was a tough episode to record. But couldn't get on the mic without saying what we really felt. This week, we unpack the recent race riots and what this means for Black, Brown, Muslim, migrants and asylum seekers living in the UK.

This week, we reflect on the last few weeks in politics since Labour's landslide win in the 2024 General Election. Plus, we ask why the Labour Party has the cash to spend money on war but not to lift 250,000 children out of poverty. Want to know the General Election results in your constituency?

After 15 national marches for Palestine, and almost 40,000 Palestinians killed since 7th October, we ask the question that most people seem to be avoiding: what good is peaceful protesting if Palestinians are still dying in their thousands?

We're back, finally! This week, we catch up on why we've been away for so long (Dems has really been going through it) and unpack the results from the recent UK local elections. We also discuss Green Party councillor, Mothin Ali's recent apology after Antisemitism claims after being elected to Leeds City Council. Plus we ask, can the Green Party reach the Black community? In the spotlight: Natalie Campbell who ran as an independent candidate for Mayor of London and secured the most votes out of all the independents candidates.

This week we had the pleasure of interviewing Jordan Pitt and Lee Daley who respectively directed and produced the documentary Untold Stories: Hair on Set. Created and also directed by actress Fola Evans-Akingbola, the documentary offers a rare and candid glimpse of conversations amongst Black peers on their experiences on the sets of film and television. The documentary features stories from Naomie Harris (Moonlight, Skyfall), Nathalie Emmanuel (Game of Thrones), David Ajala (Star Trek: Discovery), and Verona Rose (Top Boy).

This week, we unpack the UN Security Council passing a resolution demanding ‘an immediate ceasefire’ during Ramadan. While this is a major breakthrough in terms of Britain finally voting for a ceasefire, we still see past the facade of what's clearly a temporary one. Hun, you can't "pause" a genocide. Sorry for the late episode, we've all been through it this week, so we're taking a break from recording to relax during the Easter Bank Holiday. This means there won't be a new episode next week. A new episode will be published on Tuesday 9th April. 💜 In the Spotlight: The Damilola Taylor Trust opened by Richard Taylor OBE as a memorial to his son with the aim of providing a legacy of hope and opportunity for disadvantaged and under privileged young people.

In the Spotlight: The organizers of the Rally for Diane Abbott - local black women in Hackney including Lucie Scott, the former BAME officer for Hackney North, local activist Sulekha Hassan and several councillors in the borough.

We been to the last two protests in support of the people of Congo, organised by Stand for Congo UK, so we decided to talk about our experience and how you can support.

With everything that's been happening recently in Palestine, Sudan and the DRC, it's hard for us to take celebrities and influencers seriously. So we shared some honest words about it. Plus we give you an update on the latest news from the ICJ about Israel's occupation of (and reign of terror in) Palestine. And last but not least, Kier Starmer is a bloodclart. The next rally to demand MPs vote for a ceasefire is Wednesday 21st February, at Parliament Sq, London, at 3:30 PM. More info here.

This week, we intended to have a whole episode on pop culture. Instead, we found it would be more fitting to have a frank discussion about the bombing of Rafah, cosplaying celebrities and Black British podcasters who need to drop the mic and pick up a book. We really poured our hearts out this week. More information on the next March for Palestine ⁠here⁠. More information on the next March for Sudan here.

Spoiler alert...it’s not rap. Ahead of our discussion about Nicki, we unpack the verdict of the ICJ hearing and demystify the legalese that came with it and ask: why didn’t anyone say ceasefire now? Then, we get down to business and talk about Miss Nicki Lewinsky herself and her unforgivable behaviour towards Megan Thee Stallion. Is Nicki OK? Of course, she’s not.  The next march for Palestine is on Saturday 3rd February. Meeting point: BBC, Portland Place, London, 12 noon. Click here for more information.

Despite Storm Isha lambasting the UK, Babylon continues to do its dirty work. This week, we unpack the Conservative government's Rwanda Bill and the latest Boycott Bill, which received its third and final reading at Parliament before being presented at the House of Lords. What exactly do these bills mean in a wider context for us, and is it worth the public interest? *Spoiler alert...it bloody well is!

Our second week into 2024, and it feels like peace was never given a chance before the wotlessnes settled in. This week, we devote today's episode to the ICJ hearing at The Hague, where South Africa bravely took Israel to court accusing the state of genocidal acts against Palestine. Note: Dems mentioned that Germany publicly admitted and apologised for acts of genocide against Namibians in 2015, when in fact, it was 2021. Click here for more information.

In our penultimate episode before the the Christmas break, we take a deep dive into the political news of the week including Rishi's obsession with boats and the US and her baby mum, the UK and their relentless quest to remain on the wrong side of history. Plus, we're film critics now guys...we give our first film review of Savanah Leaf's debut independent film, Earth Mama, which you can watch at your local Picture House.

We've made it to episode 30! With so much going on in the world over the past few weeks, we decided to take the time to look inward, be a little reflective and talk about the biggest thing that's been weighing on our minds. Spoiler alert: it's in the title. In the spotlight: Busayo Twins, and her series of bite-sized video shorts, Everything is Political, which is published weekly on her Instagram. What's going on in DR Congo: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Huge expansion in cobalt and copper mining is ‘wrecking lives’ - new report⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

This week we discuss our participation in the latest national march for Palestine. While we didn't make it to 1 million, it was still one of the most impactful and insightful marches we've been on since it started. In fact, we noticed that there was (still) a surprisingly small number of Black people present, especially on the podium after the march. Did BLM UK miss something here? Finally, we take a deep dive into the fashion fatality that was the Renaissance premier red carpet. Blvck Canvas is your official fashion correspondant folks! In the spotlight: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Friends of the Congo⁠⁠⁠ - a Pan-African solidarity organization raising global consciousness about the challenges and potential of the Congo. What's going on in DR Congo: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Huge expansion in cobalt and copper mining is ‘wrecking lives’ - new report⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. No National march this week. Instead, there is a Day of Action for Palestine in your local area on Saturday 2nd December. Please join an action in your local area to call for a permanent ceasefire now and for an end to British complicity in Israeli apartheid, including through the UK-Israel arms trade. You can find more information to get involved here.

In the wake of the UK Parliament failing in its humanitarian duty to call for a ceasefire in Palestine, we discuss last week's rally outside Parliament and what our next steps should be as UK citizens to hold the government accountable. We also unpack Cassie Ventura's open-and-shut lawsuit against Sean Combs and the coloured conundrum African Americans faced recently when they realised South African artist, Tyla, wasn't (shock horror) Black. In the spotlight: Sistah Space - an award-winning, community-based non-profit organisation that bridges the gap in domestic abuse services for African heritage women and girls.

This week, the gang is finally back! Tiffany joins us after a little hiatus to discuss the recent National March for Palestine and how we need to keep the momentum going until there's a ceasefire in Palestine. We also talk about the current mess that is the British Government and the latest cabinet shake-up. Plus, why the hell is 90s Baby podcast discussing a cult full of abusers for clout - have some shame. On Wednesday, 15th November, MPs will likely vote on whether to call for a Ceasefire in Palestine. There will be a Rally for Palestine at 5PM to demand MPs vote for a #CeasefireNow.

Another week, another round-up of the latest in Palestine, DRC and Sudan with our guest Momodou Taal. But this week, we also draw attention to what ignited radicalism in our politics and this influences how we navigate our daily lives. Plus, we have a few words to say to Black British influencers and creatives. In the spotlight, Momodou Taal - Ph.D. Student and host of The Malcolm Effect Podcast.

This week discuss the highlights from the latest National March for Palestine and the government's continued quest to twist the narrative about Israel's occupation of Gaza and the Free Palestine movement. We also unpack other humanitarian crises across the African continent, including Sudan and the DR Congo. Whether it's Gaza, climate change, the cozzy lives, DR Congo, Sudan or the housing market, everything is linked and we need to keep the conversation going!

This week we take a deep dive into the latest news about the humanitarian crisis in Palestine, the recent protest in Central London and how the British press and politicians have backpedaled their stance after public outcry.

With a healthy mix of ineptitude from the British media and misinformation spread on social media, we couldn't just sit down and record a normal episode this week. Joined by friend of the show, Busayo Twins, we take a deep dive into the history of Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories, unpack the myopic one-sided reporting from the British media (*insert shocked meme here) and ask, what can we do know in the wake of possibly witnessing a genocide in real time.

*Trigger warning: Femicide + gender-based violence* This week was tough for us as we unpacked the senseless murder of 15-year-old Elianne Andam, who was fatally stabbed by a 17-year-old boy. The media have been doing the most, talking about knife crime and gang violence, but let's call it what it really is: Femicide. We decided to centre violence against Black girls and women back in the conversation and discuss where this violence stems from and what we can do to prevent gender-based violence. In the Spotlight: Richie Brave, BBC Presenter, broadcaster and host of radio's biggest group chat 1XtraTalks. Listen to Richie's latest episode of 1Xtra Talks, where he explores the fallout of violence and experiences of Black girls. Featuring Ebinehita Iyere from Milk Honey Bees, a Black-led safe space for girls/women. Guests: Tshayi Hercules of Gateway Girls, Croydon Father DJ Ace and facilitator Nathaniel Cole.

We've been gone for a minute but we're back! This week we discuss our surprise at the news of a police officer being charged with the murder of Chris Kaba. Will this lead to a conviction? Or are we just getting our hopes up? Plus, why were people taking to the streets to protect Lassie when rent was due last week? *Deep ancestral sigh* In the Spotlight: Temi Mwale, abolitionist, educator and director of the 4 Front Project, a youth organisation that supports people to reimagine peace and justice. Secret Policeman: Racism in the Police - the BBC Panorama documentary that revealed racism among police recruits in the Bruche National Training Centre in Warrington by an undercover reporter.

*Trigger Warning: Lucy Letby, infant death and medical racism* We're going through it this week. But we thought it was important to show up and take a deep dive into the media's reaction to yet more evidence of medical racism and systemic failures within the NHS after the sentencing of Lucy Letby. Plus, we discuss what on earth is going on with Oja, the African & Caribbean online grocery store, and allegations of poor business practices and money management.

This week, we take a deep dive into the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion by Tory Lanez, the trial and Tory's subsequent sentencing (bye ashy). Where was the unwavering support for Megan during her ordeal and the trial from her celebrity peers? Is this a wider reflection of how our society treats Black women? It's safe to say that everything is linked, and all we ask is that you all do one simple thing; support Black women. In the Spotlight: Yomi Adegoke and her debut novel, The List, which is out now.

This week we unpack the unnecessary drama surrounding Jamie Fox and allegations of anti-semitism, plus the recent news of Lizzo being sued by her ex-dancers claiming a 'hostile working environment' and 'fat shaming'. As you can imagine, we're asking the usual question...is everyone OK? We also round up the episode with a brief chat about the much-anticipated part two of Carlos King's interview with reality TV legend NeNe Leakes. In the Spotlight: Adjani Salmon and his new comedy series, Dreaming Whilst Black, available on iPlayer.

This week, we decided to dedicate the entire episode to the one, and only NeNe Leakes! In particular, her interview with TV producer Carlos King on his podcast. We thoroughly enjoyed the entertaining interview as much as we enjoyed talking about it, and we can’t wait to watch part 2! In the Spotlight: Carlos King's podcast, Reality with The King.

This week we had a very reflective conversation about the UK's collective apathy when it comes to activism and climate change. Why are people clutching pearls and feeling 'conflicted' over orange confetti being thrown on George Osborn at his wedding when he's part of the reason why we're in this economic mess? We also discuss Keke Palmer's boyfriend's nonsensical tweets about her attire at a recent Usher concert. Boy, have several seats! In the Spotlight: A baby girl, Kelechi Okafor.

This week we fancied a laugh, so we decided to dedicate this week's episode to all the messy goings on in pop culture. First, we started off with Davido's wandering willy, resulting in getting two women pregnant. Unfortunately, non of them were his wife. Then, we cackled at 31-year-old 'Gary' having a meltdown because his parents downsized their home, including his room - no home training caught in 4K! Plus, the legendary Naomi Campbell's questionable collaboration with Pretty Little Thing - how tragic. In the Spotlight: Media mogulette, MoChunks. Follow MoChunks on ⁠Instagram⁠ and ⁠Twitter⁠. Watch her vlogs here and listen to her talk show here. Special Shout out to Gracy, who was probably filming her older brother 'Gary' from the bottom of the stairs. You're the real MVP this week!

Wow, so much nonsense has happened in the space of a week, but we couldn't start without recognising the 75th anniversary of the HMT Empire Windrush, which carried 800 West Indian passengers from the Caribbean to the UK on the 22nd of June 1948. But what about the mess, you ask? Well, we couldn't ignore the recent revelations of the Partygate scandal, including a leaked video of Conservative MPs breaking their own Covid restrictions by having the most unseasoned party of 2020. Then, we unpacked the folly of the rich; the Titan submersible and its unfortunate demise, killing all five passengers, on its journey to explore the wreckage of the Titanic. What is this obsession with a boat that sank over 100 years ago...is everyone OK? In the Spotlight: Social Housing Campaigner, Kwajo Tweneboa. Follow Kwajo on ⁠Instagram⁠ and ⁠Twitter⁠.

Wow, we've been gone for a hot minute, but we're back! And, of course, this dusty Island didn't disappoint in giving us a smorgasbord of nonsense to talk about while we were away. This week, we get our heads around the pomp, pageantry and PR performance surrounding Phillip Schofield and his alleged grooming allegations. Then we, begrudgingly, dived into the unnecessary discourse surrounding Disney's live-action remake of The Little Mermaid before unpacking the media reaction to TikTok prankster, Mizzy. Seriously, how did we get here? To end on a positive note, we talked about the FOMO we experienced from watching DLT Malta vicariously through social media. Honestly, you all really enjoyed - we love to see it! In the Spotlight: Award-winning day party event DLT. Follow DLT on Instagram and Twitter. Check out their website here.

This week, it's just us mums. We're joined by content creator, and friend of the show, Rose Annor, to unpack the joys and challenges of motherhood and why it's important to have honest conversations about the realities of mum life. Plus, we have a frank discussion about the hat fitting ceremony and ask why people are happy to wave flags for a billionaire when they've only got -£1.50 on their electric meter.

We've covered a lot of heavy topics over the past few weeks, and quite frankly it was starting to get us down. So this week, we decided to dedicate episode 11 to Joy. After all, "make sure you take the time to centre joy" is a common refrain ya'll hear from us on the podcast, so it's about time we took a healthy dose of our own medicine. From writing poetry and centering stillness to connecting to culture through food and language, we open up and talk about what we do to centre joy in our lives and why it's important for Black people in the UK to do the same. In the Spotlight: Black Joy, a collection of short stories edited by Charlie Brinkhurst-Cuff and Timi Sotire Support Tiffany's slow fashion business Mela9 Gold Follow Blvck Canvas TV on ⁠Instagram⁠ and ⁠Twitter⁠ Hosts: Tops Instagram: ⁠@SincerelyTops⁠ Twitter: ⁠@SincerelyTops⁠ Tiffany Instagram: ⁠@tiffanyr0x⁠ Twitter: ⁠@tiffanyr0x⁠ Dems Instagram: ⁠@GeminiDems⁠ Twitter: ⁠@GeminiDems

If you'd asked us before 2020 if Diane Abbott, of all people, would be suspended from the Labour Party for racist views, we would have laughed in your face and gone about our business. But alas, once again, Britain has shown us that she really isn't that girl. We take a deep dive into the mess that was Auntie Diane's letter, in response to Tomiwa Owolade⁠'s article about the complexities of race, and Tomiwa's subsequent response, which amplified the racist pile on towards Diane Abbott on social media. Was he wrong to reply? Should he have just gone outside to touch grass? Was his response rooted in anti-Blackness? Spoiler alert...yes! And we'll explain why. In the Spotlight: Dr. Kayode Oki - MBChB BSc BAdB.

We took another lovely break for the Easter Bank Holiday (because rest is a radical act) and guess what? That's right, we came back to more mess. This time, in the form of Andrew Edwards, Pembrokeshire County Conservative party councillor, and his racist comments about Black people that leaked online last week. Yet another sign that what?...Britain is shit! Plus we discuss the sad news of Gal-Dem's decision to close and why it's important to support community-driven platforms with your coins as well as online engagement. Gal-Dem may have closed but its contributors are still available for work, so please share their contributor directory. The directory is contains a list of brilliant writers, illustrators, activists, creators and more! Watch our episode Performative Activism which we discussed in this week's episode.
