Download Are Black music events being over-policed?

As we approach Stephen Lawrence Day, we honour his memory and get an update from BBC journalist Daniel De Simone on what's happened with the case in the last 12 months.

We also discuss over-policing of Black owned events and how that’s impacting the community with the CEO of Black Lives in Music, Charisse Beaumont, and artist and founder of Black Pound Day, Swiss.

Finally, Richie discusses the new upcoming comedy film Jafaican with the creator Fredi Nwaka.
