Yomi Sode, Loyle Carner & Athian Akec on Finding Your Voice | In Conversation

Join award nominated poet Yomi Sode in conversation with Mercury Prize nominated musician Loyle Carner, and former Youth MP Athian Akec. In this Penguin Talk, hosted at Carshalton Boys Sports College, they speak on the power of creativity, their role models, what it means to be a man, and how to find your voice. You can get MANORISM here: https://bit.ly/3odm5Ak Impassioned, insightful, electric, Manorism is a poetic examination of the lives of Black British men and boys: propped up and hemmed in by contemporary masculinity, deepened by family, misrepresented in the media, and complicated by the riches, and the costs, of belonging and inheritance. It is also an exploration of the differences of impunity afforded to white and Black people, and to white and Black artists. Caravaggio - originally, unexpectedly - looms large: as a man who moved between spheres of exalted patronage and petty criminality; as a painter who, amid the elegant conventions of late Mannerism, forged his own style of visceral dark and light; and as an individual whose recognized genius was allowed to legitimate and excuse his violence. In this profound and moving debut, Yomi Sode asks: what does it mean to find oneself between worlds - to 'code-switch', adapting one's speech and manners to widely differing cultural contexts? Who is, and who isn't, allowed to be more than their origins? And what do we owe each other? What do we owe ourselves?
