During Black History Month this October, we want to look forwards, as well as looking back.
You will be hearing voices that describe black lives in the past, the present, and the future.
What is the importance of remembering Black History? What challenges and successes face the community today? And what hopes are there for the future?
Join us as we hear the interesting and thought-provoking conversations about black life in the UK. We celebrate black history and culture, as well as having an honest - and at times, blunt - conversation about race.
Black Lives: Past, Present and Future is a Laudable production brought to you by Reach plc and JPI.

Black Lives: Past, Present and Future
Leonard Reid
28 OCT 2020 · Leonard Reid is a clothing brand owner from Preston.
Leonard grew up in an area of Preston called Fulwood, which he describes as having "a reputation for being a nice area."
Leonard states "very few people of colour lived in Fulwood when I was growing up, so I always felt ‘black’ if that makes sense... I was raised with manners and respect, so I never got into any trouble therefore most of my experiences where positive and in a lot of cases I was treated a lot better due to being black."
He describes life in Preston nowadays by saying "I don’t feel as alienated due to their being much more people of colour in Preston. I feel like people are more open to learning more about the black culture, as I regularly get questions about my experiences and opinions on certain situations."
