Rap is the son of a black activist

Rap is the son of Darcus Howe, a black activist who moved over to the UK in the late 1960s and became a prominent political voice and advocate for black rights. Rap tells us how his dad wasn’t around much, but how he values what he stood for.

This film was made by Christine Lutzu – Chrissy Lutzu Photography and Film as a part of the 1000 Londoners ‘Windrush Generations’ season.

This film is part of 1000 Londoners, a ten-year digital project which aims to create a digital portrait of a city through 1000 of the people who identify themselves with it. The profile contains a 3 minute film that gives an insight into the life of the Londoner, as well as their personal photos of London and some answers to crucial questions about their views on London life. Over the course of the project we aim to reveal as many facets of the capital as possible, seeing city life from 1000 points of view.
