Good Vibes Through A Bad Year ft. Yasmin Evans

If You Don't Know

Available for over a year

2020 wasn’t easy, but we’re still here. Today marks the one year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, a death that sparked some of the biggest anti-racism protests around the world. We understand that there will be loads of people who will spend a lot of today talking about what has changed since May 2020, but for a lot of us, these conversations can be quite heavy. So instead of reliving the trauma, we want to celebrate the things that helped us through this madness of a year. This is a safe space for us to take a moment and look back at all the great things that pulled us through. In conversation with the singer, Cherri V, and Celeste, a fitness trainer from the Body By Ciara Squad. Oh, and 1Xtra’s very own Yasmin Evans. 00:00: We made it through! 04:15: Reflections of 2020 07:35: In conversation with Yasmin Evans 22:39: In conversation with Cherri V 29:58: We’re back with Yasmin again talking about the importance of fitness during lockdown 30:23: In conversation with Celeste Louise 31:58: Yasmin De-Graft and Roshan back again 38:05: Over and outttttt Let us know what you think… email us on [email protected].
