June 20th

Voices of the Archive shares in the legacy of Black British activist, Olive Morris. Born in Jamaica in 1952, Olive moved to London aged 9. She made fierce contributions to squatters’ movements and Black women’s groups across the 60’s and 70’s. Here her legacy is woven together from oral histories found in the Olive Morris Collection at Lambeth Archives, taken by the Remembering Olive Collective in 2009.

Moving across memories of those who knew her, we don’t just recount Olive’s story, but emphasise the vibrant community that speaks her back to life. Their archival consciousness plays out across a radio. Tuning between static, original music and immersive sound design, we visit different spaces in which Olive is found.

Interviews from Elouise Edwards, Danny DaCosta, Michael Cadette, Mike McColgan, Jennifer Lewis, Gerlin Bean, Sandra Hurst, Suzy Mackie, Sophia Kokkinos, Aneez Esmail, Judith Lockhart, Hurlington Armstrong, Basil Morris, Diane Watt, Elizabeth Anionwu and Stella Dadzie, are upheld together as contributors to Black British history. A testament to this community, the piece disrupts the erasure and marginalisation of Black history, and generates a messy conversation that resists limiting representations of Blackness. In Voices of the Archive we remember that Black history is living, changing and shared.

the weekend (esentrik edit)

We pull up in the rover,
With bottles and a chauffeur,
Not my fault that your man can't win us over.
Looking this good doesn't come for free,
If you want to hang with bad bitches there's gonna be a fee.
