If You Don't Know: Black Pride and the Black Pound

Black Pride and the Black Pound

BBC Radio 1Xtra - If You Don't Know, Black Pride and the Black Pound

The founders of Black Pride and Black Pound Day on how they’re changing attitudes

Black Pride is back this summer, so the co-founder, Lady Phyll, stops by to talk about why she set up the movement and why it’s so important to the black and POC LGBTQ+ community.

We also get into Black Pound Day with its founder, Swiss, from So Solid Crew. They’ve just opened a new shop where black-owned businesses can sell their stuff. And Jamelia Donaldson, who set up Treasure Tress, tells De-Graft that it’s really not that hard to change your shopping habits to support black entrepreneurs.
