"A People without knowledge of their past history, origin or culture is like a tree without roots." 

Akadi is a multi-medium performance poet born and raised in London, from Caribbean and African heritage.

His first single is called 'Love is the Revolution' and its out on Spotify.

We talk about redefining ourselves, no matter what labels the society puts on us, the importance of connecting with our roots and also the duality of light and dark perceived by us humans in everything we do, including in how we perceive racial differences. 

Akadi performs 'We shall rise' a gorgeous poem with light and shadows. Check out his website https://www.treeswithroots.uk and connect with him via IG @treeswithroots
