How to celebrate UK Black Pride during Covid-19

Opoku-Gyimah tells us what’s coming up:

“UK Black Pride will be holding two significant virtual events. One is Pride Inside, which is alongside Amnesty International, Para Pride and Stonewall. We’ve put on a series of workshops, panel discussions, entertainment and the theme is all around “home” and combating the loneliness of isolation.

“Our second event will be in August, which will celebrate 15 years of UK Black Pride – looking back at the history, how far we’ve come, what we still have to do, who we engage with and how we continue to build on what we have already.”

Lady Phyll has also recorded an episode about solidarity as part of the Anthem’s Pride podcast series. A new episode, featuring a guest speaker, will be released everyday throughout June. You can listen to the full series here.
