Spotify & The Black Curriculum launch podcast series, Sounds of Black Britain

Cultural powerhouse Julie Adenuga deep dives into the musical history of Black Britain.

Joined by guests who have contributed heavily to the scene’s evolution such as Estelle, General Levy, D Double E, DJ Target, Jae 5, Omar, Dennis Bovell, and Novelist to name a few, the Sounds of Black Britain podcast uses music as an educational resource to understand the Black British experience.

Delivering Black British history across the UK, social enterprise The Black British Curriculum prepares students to become fully rounded citizens, ready for an increasingly globalised world.

This immersive podcast series celebrates the culture and education of Black Britain and the music it has brought to the world. Exploring history and identity through Black British music, Sounds of Black Britain discusses the historical journeys of sounds such as ska, the shift in the way we as a community have created and consumed music over time, and how music has played a key part in building identities, conserving histories, and empowering generations.

This podcast will play a key part in empowering the educational experience of young people, using conversations on music and community to foster a greater sense of identity, and providing them with the tools needed to be active and valuable members of a globalised society.

Whatever your preference, be sure to give it a listen or watch.
