Backlash Against The Bland: asked by you; answered by experts, artists and activists - a series of conversations about burning topics including arts, culture and identity; that young people are asking but no one is answering, until now. Every episode features activists, academics, artists, young leaders and people with strong opinions. Things might get personal, they might get you shaking your phone, but it's time to backlash against the bland. This series is created by Free Radical, an art activist organisation in the heart of Birmingham, and supported by The Space and Arts Council England through National Lottery funding.
