For some families & cultures; smacking your child is used as a form of discipline. So normalised, you’d find children exchanging stories on the school playground, as a “badge of honour”. But as each generation creates new traditions, we ask, is this form of discipline outdated? Was it ever right and can the same results be achieved using other methods?

Ep. 5 – Can Activism In Sport Shape The Narrative? (feat. Ben Carrington)

By

In recent weeks we have seen several attempts of activism within the world of sport. From the NBA in the US to the Premier League here in the UK, we ask the question can activism in sport shape the narrative for change. Discussing if and how athletes are able to change the perception of black people, we have our guest Professor Ben Carrington to join us! This is an It’s All Blakademik production which aims to focus a series of collective learning, varied conversations and exploration about the culture. Presented by Alex Holmes, Jordan Jarrett-Bryan and Tsedenia Skitch.

The last few months, more than recent history, has been heavy to say the least. From the constant police brutality to the COVID-19 Pandemic disproportionately affecting Black People. There’s a (justified) focus on the Black American experience but what about Britain and the trauma caused to it’s Black citizens?

Why Should We Vote?

By

The ability to vote, to have a voice, was seen as necessary in creating change but over the years, that idea seems to be increasingly untrue.
