  1. My own playlist. (mojo-beat). Please listen and let me know what you think.https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7pbD6B6UHxti24MznLkdAS?si=rnT2Dce7Qo2dCT08Mmq58w&pi=e-JpCs0nq7RvS6 Thanks
  2. Very recent purchase, The Gospel according to James Baldwin. Wasn't aware of this book but thanks to AALBC.......
  3. The biography of Darkus Howe,Renegade. Pretty good,I must say.
  4. Just started watching this on Netflix. Interesting to say the least.
  5. Reading a biography on Lorraine Hansberry. Pretty good so far. Finally ordered Race Matters by Cornel West. Finally.
  6. In 48, after the establishment of Israel, the Nakba occurred . It wasn't enough for the Zionists. No, more land was required and at the expense of the Palestinians. At least 400 villages were destroyed. And the 'locals', the settlers are still not happy today. Yes,Gaza was given back but it's the biggest open air prison in the world.
  7. Pretty basic videos I suppose but they certainly do something for ME Sorry,you will have to click on the links to view the videos. Forgot how to post properly,if you know what I mean.
  8. It's certainly a very good read, that's for sure. Have you read Princess Noir? My copy came a few days ago but I haven't started it yet.
  9. Watched a profile on Faith recently on the BBC. Haven't heard of her before but was a fascinating documentary. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0006wh6/imagine-2019-faith-ringgold-tell-it-like-it-is
  10. Quite possibly,Nina Simones finest live album, Black Gold. Unbelievably good.
  11. A fairly recently opened bookshop in Brighton,East Sussex. Visited the once. https://afroribooks.co.uk/
  12. Re reading this rather excellent book
  13. https://blog.libro.fm/ways-to-resist-am*zon-from-raven-bookstores-danny-caine/?mc_cid=34a4ba2011&mc_eid=357bcc6aa1
  14. Just about to start this. Nice edition from Everyman.
  15. I personally don't listen much to audio books but here is a good place to start https://libro.fm/
  16. Read a fair amount about Audre Lorde but never actually read anything by her. Till now.
  17. I've told my daughter time and time again about am*zon. She pays for Prime so I checked the film out. I gotta say that I really enjoyed it. But Sam Cooke didn't look nothing like him. Still, scouring the pages I came across a film I've never heard of. Sylvie's Love. The trailer looked good so I dived in. Excellent stuff.
  18. A gift for Xmas from my wife. So far so good.
  19. Great to see James Baldwin there. In fact, I'm not surprised at all.
  20. A work colleague played me this recently. I completely forgot about it. This is the Moments in 1975 on BBC's Top of the Pops. Nice memories.
