So Liverpool has one of the oldest black communities in the UK. Port city meaning these streets were funded by slavery .Do we have a library of black culture, I’m talking art, literature, music housed in one space as a learning resource for everyone coming up? No. Lets build one.

One day I’ll actually take time off when I book annual leave instead of still being on emails & getting stressed . One more shift then 6days of no retail or admin.

Now We Sit With It, 2024. The piece is called ’Now We Sit With It’ – it depicts a moment of reflection, and the idea of sitting with the past in order to move forward into the future. Now on display at The Reader, Liverpool. Photographs by Radka Dolinska
