In this vibrant episode of Roots to Roads, we link up with Rtkal—a voice of the people and a creative force from Birmingham.
We dive into the layers of Black British identity, growing up in a multicultural UK, and how the legacy of our roots shapes the roads we choose to walk today. From the struggles of Birmingham’s underbuilt music scene to finding home across borders, Article brings raw insight and real experience.
We explore the power of movement—physical, mental, and cultural—and how creatives can shift the narrative, build new spaces, and stay grounded in who they are while reaching for more.
Whether you’re from the ends, the islands, or somewhere in between, this one’s for you.
