    Mouth-Off is a platform for marginalised groups to get their stories heard. Each episode covers a wide range of topics from disability, gender and religion, to substance abuse, inequality and race. Music and the arts often play a significant part in each episode of Mouth-Off so this month (and for the next 5 episodes), we have decided to do things a bit differently. We are doing a BONUS mini series called Be Pure, Be Vigilant, Behave exploring the body of work of Welsh rock band, Manic Street Preachers. Manic Street Preachers are a band that we consider to be the ultimate band for marginalised issues. In part 1, Mouth-Off's host Clary Saddler will share her own thoughts of the band, discussing how Manic Street Preachers are intrinsically linked with her journey of self-discovery.
