Spoken Word playlist: Caleb Femi | And They Knew Light https://youtu.be/35S79A6YAIk A lyrical and poetic depiction of London, And They Knew Light deconstructs images of the young inner-city British working-class and how they are received. Caleb Femi has performed at Royal Festival Hall, the Barbican and Tate Modern, and led poetry workshops across the UK. Kate Tempest | Parable https://youtu.be/Y1MqO6FcsLI Spoken word performance from poet and playwright Kate Tempest. Produced by The Mob Film Co. Hollie McNish | Embarrassed https://youtu.be/S6nHr British poet and spoken word artist, Hollie McNish vocalises the daily battle mothers face when nursing in public. Teaming up with filmmaker Jake Dypka they touch on the over exposure of breasts in the media versus the outraged reaction women face if they openly breastfeed. Why is titillation accepted and sustenance rejected?
