Episode 5 - Liza Bilal

“I decided to help organise the protest in Bristol as, after feeling overwhelmed by the number of stories I was seeing… of black individuals being harassed and racially abused, it felt pertinent to channel my frustration and hurt into something productive,” Liza Bilal.

I am pleased to have on my first Gen Z guest, Liza Bilal.

Liza is a student of Anthropology and an Organiser of the BLM movement in Bristol. We discuss BLM, South Sudan, her experiences of living in Bristol, colourism and much more on this 5th episode of the Nea Onnim podcast.

“I think that we not only achieved our goals of showing solidarity with the rest of the UK and the US by creating a conversation, but we also surpassed them. The tearing down of the Edward Colston slave trader statue, by some courageous individuals, has created ripple effects across the globe that we could never have imagined.” Liza Bilal
