It was a privilege to have Artists Ingrid Pollard and Keith Piper take part in the session and add their own perspectives to the dialogue. To go from reading about these artists in books last month, to them being present in the second part shows how valuable a cross generational conversation is to all of us.   Some thoughts that emerged from the session- Have Black artists become depoliticised? If so, why is this and at what cost? Have our radical practices and concerns been co-opted? If so, how might we reclaim them or gain control of how they are disseminated?

How do we continue the conversation in a way that can be disseminated creatively and is cross generational?
