I’ve missed playing live so much I made a music video where I asked my audience to draw themselves and via some computer magic placed them into a cardboard festival with me playing.

In these uncertain times, it’s good to hang on to moments that make sense, that we could’ve always expected - like having a tea party with my son while rocking uncle ⁦Bilal Zafar | TOURING UK & IRELAND RESPECTIVELY⁩ ‘s new merch line, now that he’s got a new career as a virtual football manager

Gecks at it again!! Loved recording some BVs on this banger

Over the past week I've seen a lot of white people stuck at step 3 and many others thinking they can go from step 3 straight to step 13. There's a lot more to do.

Small notes on joy & imagination in this current climate (that has always been the climate).

In the same way that most kids can tell you that the second world war started in 1939, how many wives Henry 8th had, what year was the battle of Hastings, etc, they should also know what Operation Legacy was, what happened in the Partition, how genocide occured in Rwanda & more.

The only reason that British white people think we are less racist than Americans is because our history syllabus is: 1066, Some Kings, SKIP THE RACIST BITS, The Big Wars We Won.

As a Christian, watching Trump denigrate everything Jesus taught while holding a Bible & professing to follow our religion gives me a tiny glimpse of how it must feel to have been an ordinary Muslim in this country for the last twenty years.

1. Anti-racism takes work.
2. The work starts with you.
