The good people at Barbican have blessed me with an opportunity to cover a portion of their month-long programme called "Rebel Radio": "the sound of resistance and reinvention across this month-long celebration of pirate radio and its lasting impact on music, culture and community."
In the final part, I take in the last talk, simply named "Where Are All The House Parties?", hosted by BBC Radio 1Xtra's Richie Brave with panellists DJ Alex Rita, Writer/Director Caleb Femi & DJ Lynda Rosenior-Patten. I give thoughts minutes after the talk itself and overall thoughts about the past few weeks.
I also get into the last screening of the programme "Airwaves of Rebellion: Youth, Identity, and the Fight for Community Radio" which showed another clip from a BBC coverage on Pirate Radio via their series "Radio Nights", an episode of one of the first shows directed at Black British audiences, aptly named "Ebony" and a Channel 4 Doc called "Black and White Pirate Show, the latter of which featured an introduction from Producer of the show Rob Burkitt.
Thanks to Barbican Centre for letting me get a taste of Rebel Radio and allowing me to cover the talks in the way I wanted.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
