From country gravel paths to Tour De France tarmac, this is a series of films exploring and applauding Black people and their attachment to cycling.
How do you unpack Africa and its diaspora, with its pride, achievements and ambitions, colonialist hum and complex two-way assimilation? The answer may lie with that supremely efficient invention, the bicycle.
Black Cyclone is a programme that has gathered a series of films celebrating black people and their attachment to cycling.
From tales of the Black Foxes, an African-American collective of cyclists meeting for the first time for a ride in the wilds, to Eritrean triumph in the Tour De France, Black Cyclone explores the myriad ways that cyclists of Colour interact with their communities, surroundings and the wider world on two wheels.
The screening will be followed by a panel discussion hosted by film curator and former bike messenger Ephraim Webber.
