Say His Name...George Floyd...25th May 2020

  • Summary

  • Say His Name...George Floyd...25th May 2020 1 year after the brutal murder of George Floyd, The Word produced and presented a tribute to George Floyd and I was honoured to be able to share the reflections of many inspirational voices from the Bristol Community and ends with the moving poem by Antonette Eulinda Clarke entitled 'George Floyd - The Catalyst for Change' and archive material from the iconic Bristol Activist Sir Paul Stephenson OBE. Thank you to all the contributors including Gary Hines from the Sounds of Blackness, Lynn Mareno, Desmond Brown, Marvin Rees, Angel Mel, Carmen Carrol, Jendayi Serwah, Corrd the Seeker, and Faada Sojie. Plus amazing speeches from the Protest that took place just 12 days after the murder of George Floyd in Bristol when the statue of slave trader Edward Colston was hauled down and thrown into the river. We hear from the incredibly talented recording artist Delocx, former poet laureate Mile Chambers and the then 9 year old Tianna. With thanks to Dawn Limbu and Angel Mel for their help collating some of the speeches we hear from the Protest that took place on 7th June 2020.
