H7 Gary Younge: Dispatches from the Black Diaspora

Collection: Curious Minds

For the last three decades Gary Younge has had a ringside seat during the biggest events impacting the black diaspora. He accompanied Nelson Mandela on his first election campaign, joined revellers on the southside of Chicago during Obama's victory, and interviewed Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Maya Angelou and Stormzy. He talks to Colin Grant (I’m Black So You Don’t Have To Be) about how much change is possible and the power of systems to thwart those aspirations.
