Where do you know youre speaking to a much for the audience to just you know, you, your background.

You are very welcome to jump into the comments section and you can be part of our conversation. We are particularly talking about a new film called black yellow rabbit. To get to you at a moment, got questions about that. I get straight to the top of the key to john. Im thinking about you growing up as a youngster. And i grew up as a great from the african diaspora, your son of the diaspora. Some of the uganda in the asper more moments as a youngster. Will you shoot me a way that you like the band . Well, i was um, i was raised in the Jamaica Community the only you got an family in the neighborhood. And um, the jamaicans had been there for some generations and they had a different relationship with the country to what my parents side. So really and my friends and their families. I was already aware that our, youve gone to an experience was different to one. Most people in the country identified right. Im looking here at a picture of you as a youngster. This is about 10 years ago. And use of building off east. How did you how did you know that they would be an audience for what you did . Did it even match up . Well, the ideas came from rap music in the 1st place. We had the good fortune of being able to record our selves with Home Technology for the 1st time when i started out as a raffle. So that was my introduction into what im doing now. One of the things a piece of what they even come very well known for is a pull cost and a youll talk cause has been hugely successful. You go to watch for it. And there was a neighbor where you wont be to celebrate on the out of us. You have to pull costs. Well, the pull cost at cheapest, and to do, lets have a listen. See that click when it comes to this beautiful virginia overlooked for them and Science Community student and they came out with 27 years of experience. Some of our stories come up in the papers about history, happy going to stay dependent single mom. I remember every single 1st on the front wheel. So why is it that we as a community have no control over on our main story to theres a reference for the rep as of today are facing the same struggles in w way to the around the time i was on top house crime. Unemployment is nice. We now provide dispute for a multi 1000000000. 00 store, re send an industry. So we have to show for as new versions of the same story. Have you had georges po costs as 2 dressers things and so he was smiling. Why we use money . Do you are listening to yourself . Cars are a 1st little ferry. The other thing is on sale of my in the most thoughts. And really my hope. So my dreams. So the port costs as low as the a vehicle i use to communicate some of these ideas to as many people as possible. Theres some movie as well. I know is as analogies as a create to that they are going to be milestone moments in your career. And then maybe its what people discovery you if you could name one or 2 way you. So that was, that was a milestone way more people knew about like local that was a break facia. Me. What would some of those milestones be fee george . Well a few years ago i wrote a poem for the Royal Wedding between um make a mock. Ready im friends, i read a lot of people turned on to me from the moment um, a few years before that, i opened the Rugby World Cup in 2015 with my own poem. People might know me from that up in the face of a few global ive campaigns because i write poems and collaborations with brands. And um, you know, fortunately many of those problems get broad costs across the world. So theres been a few moments, i guess theres some comments here on youtube i, i really loved these issues like yours. Youve got a big family of finds out that weve got gabrielle. Hi joel, shut out some dining m u k. Born and raised in uganda. Very proud of you. I want to play here eclipse from black kilo right before i do that. Explain what these new short film is about and the significance of the day. Okay, well black killer ripples released on the 14th of january 2021 just a month ago now. And thats the data id send. Fuzzy is most of the day of the you got them president ial elections this year. Both of these are the big moments that were on my mind for obvious reasons. And they just the moment gave me a time, a reflection that co incidence allowed me to reflect on 10 years of doors, the power and also what the, the president ial race between the incumbent president was 70 and the Opposition Leader will be why . Well, that taught me what that reinforced for me about politics and the role of art in creating change was done, stands out to me and what stood out for me was how you talked about leadership in uganda in a very memorable way. To listen. Lets have a look as a fraction of youve done in society whos reaction is angry and violent to cost. Im being silent, but then theres another suspect to see. What does it take to govern effectively . One school for we say the rules, but no, you cant. And still not to give them what the country is going full before. Travel persecution in gruesome or 70 came to power in the eightys and as of 2018, 80 percent of the guns were under the effects. You heard me right. You 5, theyve never experienced another leader and whoever that could be called back to the prove theyve got the requisite experience to govern eva. In fact, the other thing was so many gave a speech and the way you addressed the country was particularly candid, possible to read the grandkids bear in mind, but the lines, but you 6. Yeah, that really have to in popular use of pop again, the machine will use and a trixies self made and hes well paid. So many jo. Kids tested him in the mix. These times come the next election was 7076. 00, but there was something grand black about him. Thats why so many con, imagine that without, if he represents the familiar to georgia, im going to go straight to some questions as thoughts from you chief for you. This is timothy, as you can and the adage, black yellow, red seems not to resonate with a mass s given the current state in uganda. It is sickening having to wake up the tool with tightening headlines within across the gand george thoughts is. Im sick and it is disturbing across the task for as well, which is why so the through my platform um i can provide space for all who are interested in the future. Have you gone to, to reflect them to take stock of both sides of the argument and what the opportunities for us my look like moving forward and look, im looking beyond politics. Frankly, what was your experience . And this is from new to begin shooting the visuals in uganda song for shutting uganda. Someone not explain the filming process. Great question. So. Ready we actually did um, so im quite low and youre going to that was my 2nd time. So let me give you gone to my 1st time was a few years before i created that music video with the director, isaac over and the produce a cameo to continue a very talented people that was great, but this time this was a direct quote maggi lobby which is the british nigerian, he does like all the big rubies videos, music videos, but hes also a friend of mine and a bias for us to have my interest in creating the. Ready like this, that wasnt just the song, but it was also based on the coincidence. I said to him, as soon as i wrote the pieces of black killer read the ended up in the film, i said to him, were going to go out to the, im, were just gonna do whatever we can when we get there. And thats what we did. Fortunately, we were well taken care of in the community of come with uh, what we did most of the filmy as such as x and, and the rest of the team. But yeah, people are very supportive, corporate, too excited. And it was a great experience there, couple of big issues that you pick up on and you introducing in the before the sale of black yellow wrath. I would have listened to see that shes in, shes based in uganda and respond to her thoughts. The the see also yeah, im as the, you know, she, she does, shes never going to really change most tim from this room from the, from this year. So the make so i recognize the, the mix between the decisions and the habits and the track record of this regime and the lack of progress in some areas of public concern, whether thats health care, infrastructure, etc. Well, i also recognize that i really want to be respectful here because im not on the african coincidence, but i recognize some hudsons iris, i recognize, consistencies with the gun and political situation in this situation across many countries in africa. So what i see these problems when i see latest staying and power off for longer than the people expected longer than they said they would in the 1st days. But i see them changing the constitution to allow this to happen. When i see young people and becoming increasingly frustrated and even becoming divided because there are people that do support this regime when i see these concepts. Why, why . Um, well i take from these plans is that to africa needs to needs a way of rethinking change, re thinking social change, re thinking development. We as Young Africans who often find ourselves at odds with all the leaders and older regimes who always talk to us about how things work before they. Ringback empower and how they all maintain instability and the not in the economy to expand. We need to figure out how were not going to get locked into fruitless arguments with these regimes. And i think we do that already. We might not realize we might not recognize it in the way that im describing, bought through uh through our film, through um, music, through our culture which plugs us into audiences across the world and creates commercial opportunities as well as broad costing our experiences between the home the mobile on, on the dash pro, through our culture, we have created the biggest opportunity for change that we can imagine. And if we really and vicious about the opportunity we can achieve a lot of what we hope part of the politics will take care of. See, i have a cautiousness in your voice. And this is the cautiousness or of being in the, the ask for. And i can see it, people say, well, you knowing in you get how, how would you even know and then you had to the education. So its okay. So you to speak about it. I dont, i, i, i know that the of those criticisms that come back to maybe blank she how did you respond to that isnt . I think its important to respect these criticisms because even though i might not want to hear them as related to them and i think what they, what the criticisms indicate is that a club be up to one person, one of the, for us or one of the frustrating things about our elect, through a system and about politics in general is that it becomes so focused on personalities. So many of us load all of our hopes inside almost 74. But if you wanna weigh in reality, there is a system that play. This is what i talk about pounds across the continent, the systems that we just need to be scientific about. We need to be objective about the systems. So if im saying i see similarities in the direction of you kind of politics with the the way that i dont want to draw a direct comparisons with any particular country. But if im saying i see some similarities well, well i have the opportunity to do is try and figure out where i sit in those problems. And from a task for perspective, the solution of the response that i will offer is that i am at least an audience at least, and enjoy a few times in culture. At least a young person who participates in uganda from overseas. And in the you have an opportunity, i guess what, im the only one. There are many, many young uganda is an old. Do you done this across the diaspora who are passionate about the countrys future . Who wants to make the best contribution they can otherwise they will just not be engaging with the future africa. Well, um commit one of the talents and their resources. So what of a country that they sense with that . So what im saying to anyone who feels that i alone can speak for the future if youre going to, im saying the im here for you. So you support to me, what can we work on . What can we develop on the 1st, the 1st honest that i could think of is the sharing the broad costing the recording, the promotion of our culture. Thats what we do in the us here, and youtube pop by and 5 says what influence has feel free wind has on you george, in the field, black kilo ridge, you all pretty cool to be line. Can you point out that popularity doesnt mean that you could a company the popular its the alone is the same as being good, a governor and i have had to recognize that, you know, we dont, we havent necessarily had evidence. But we havent had the opportunity to show where you could do as a head of state. However, in terms of how everyone has influenced me, he is reminded me of the importance of speaking truth to power. But we, why has been someone who is a student by his police and he has stood by his criticisms, you know, many of them very valid criticisms of the way things are before. But the way that role, there was no one from an in our generation who we knew who we necessarily identified with know almost really doing that in the way the way to stop. So that really pushed me to start taking it to my feelings about your kindness future, hopefully to most of a other people in the diaspora who my also wants to start developing their opinion. And their contribution to uganda. She learns is a student, hes based in uganda. He has a question for you. How can we include everyone in this cause for social estimate and then the us to mask from a leadership standpoint. Once we are the leaders, we started this race and included everyone once we get to that point, how do we ensure that we do not confuse long term progress for no progress when we insure the change is progressive and that we keep an open mind and that we are willing to pass the bus and on to the next man. Savannah, is this a great question . And in the question of so many things that we need to ask individuals, we need to continue to apply on energy to thinking about these programs. So one of the things that youve identified as the, you know, when we do see change and when times move on, how were going to ensure that we have a system of understanding each other and sharing powell and responsibility. And the answer is there is no single answer on an individual level. Every uganda, this is what i said a bit at the end of my film, black kilo read, youve got this future is not just in politics alone. It isnt the destiny of every uganda. So as individuals, we need to 1st of all accept our social responsibility. Okay. Unfortunately, or fortunately, we dont have sexual powell. We dont have Central Authority as young your guns. There is no us across the dice pro. And for many people who do not identify with the current leadership, we do not relate to the current leadership. We dont have a single way of communicating. We dont have a single agenda of priorities that were going to work through. However, we will have a shared passion for you, then as future. So what that means is that you as an individual shipment, you need to start thinking to yourself, what can i do for my country . Where do my skills lie . Where well, opportunities do i have to connect with people overseas overseas you kind of lied george and everyone else that he represents. How can i offer my services, my skills, my know, my knowledge to these people. Ready in a way that we can build anything, any opportunity, any commercial arrangement, any trade between us, that we can control. Thats the big project for our generation to them im looking to do to, to is also collect lots of thoughts and lots of sites for you. What, what can be says that i love george. I feel that change since school i took some Big Decisions in my life, based on his id is one of the big powerful ideas that were next with, with black, yellow, red is the impact on the effectiveness of music as a source for change. A lot have a list and everybody, you know, maybe not with politics b
