大象传媒

A poem celebrating the majesty, success and resilience of black people through the ages. A piece floating between real and surreal, Contemplations is an education in both modern and ancient black history.

Words First is a talent development scheme run by 大象传媒 Arts, Radio 1Xtra and the Contains Strong Language poetry festival. Each year it identifies the best emerging spoken word talent in the UK and, through workshops and performance showcases, encourages the development of new work. These films with the Words First finalists centre on work around the 2020 theme of Protest.
