If You Don't Know: Good Vibes Through A Bad Year ft. Yasmin Evans

Good Vibes Through A Bad Year ft. Yasmin Evans

BBC Radio 1Xtra - If You Don't Know, Good Vibes Through A Bad Year ft. Yasmin Evans

2020 wasn’t easy, but we’re still here.

2020 wasn’t easy, but we’re still here. 

Today marks the one year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, a death that sparked some of the biggest anti-racism protests around the world. We understand that there will be loads of people who will spend a lot of today talking about what has changed since May 2020, but for a lot of us, these conversations can be quite heavy. So instead of reliving the trauma, we want to celebrate the things that helped us through this madness of a year. This is a safe space for us to take a moment and look back at all the great things that pulled us through. 

In conversation with the singer, Cherri V, and Celeste, a fitness trainer from the Body By Ciara Squad. Oh, and 1Xtra’s very own Yasmin Evans.
