Black British Disabled People Matter With Michelle Daley and Katouche Goll

This is the podcast where we explore why and how Black British lives matter –

What it means to be Black and British, our culture, our joy and our pain.

This week we discuss why Black British Art Matters with Ashton Attzs and Rianna Jade Parker.

Ashton Attz, is a Black non-binary painter and illustrator who won the coveted Evening

Standard Art Prize in 2018 for the painting of transgender swimmers, “Don’t Stay In Ya Lane”,

and Rianna Jade Parker is a leading a critic, curator and researcher whose first book ‘A Brief

History of Black British Art’ was published by Tate in 2021. Art can both define a culture, shape

it, and articulate the thoughts and feelings of a community. From Chris Ofili to Lynette Yiadom-

Boakye we explores exactly what art says about Black British Live and why it matters.
