Grab Your TicketsThe Day After - Sept 23rdThis episode brought culture clashes, politics, and a vision for the future all into one space.The show kicked off with laughs and roll calls before jumping into the Jay Electronica vs. Kendrick vs. Lupe Fiasco debate - the panel sparred over lyrical greatness, influence, and longevity, asking whether Jay Electronica's mystique holds up against Kendrick's consistency and Lupe's mastery of lyricism.The energy then shifted with a powerful segment on Black Tech Fest. Guest Ashley Ainsley MBE, co-founder of Color in Tech, broke down how he launched BTF in 2020 and grew it into Europe's biggest Black-led tech festival. He spoke on making tech spaces feel authentic - hosting in Tottenham's old IKEA, blending networking with DJs and food vendors, and making sure the vibe reflects the community. With partners like Apple, Google, Netflix, and Goldman Sachs, BTF has opened doors for thousands - from students discovering cybersecurity to attendees landing jobs at JustEat, Apple, and more. Ashley also touched on the hurdles of scaling UK tech versus moving to the US, and why representation is more than numbers - it's about ownership, visibility, and access.The panel closed with heavy-hitting headlines:Sarah Ferguson's apology email and the Epstein fallout.The Southport attack inquiry and delays in emergency response.Nigel Farage's immigration pledges around indefinite leave to remain.Trump officials linking Tylenol in pregnancy to autism, sparking a raw debate on public health, vaccines, and narratives in medicine.Corbyn and Sultana's shaky attempt at forming a new left-wing party.Audience stories brought it home - from lived experiences with vaccines and autism to reflections on conspiracy, community resilience, and where leadership is coming from.At its heart, this was an episode about legacy: from artists to activists, from politics to tech, from cultural icons to community builders.

Grab Your TicketsThe Day After – Sept 23rdThis episode balanced culture, politics, and community innovation.The panel welcomed Ashley Ainsley MBE, co-founder of Color in Tech and the visionary behind Black Tech Fest. He spoke about starting Color in Tech in 2018 after noticing the lack of Black representation in the industry, and how by 2020 the team launched BTF - now one of Europe's biggest tech festivals, attracting over 7,000 people.Ashley explained how BTF differs from traditional corporate conferences: it's held in disruptive, authentic spaces (like Tottenham's old IKEA), blending job fairs, networking, DJ sets, food vendors, and afterparties. The aim is to make tech accessible, inclusive, and culturally relevant.The conversation highlighted:Corporate partners like Apple, Google, Goldman Sachs, Netflix, and more supporting the movement.Success stories, from attendees landing jobs at JustEat, Apple, and Goldman Sachs, to young people discovering careers in cybersecurity and software engineering.Challenges with funding and infrastructure - from paying borough fees to managing last-minute ticket surges - but also the determination to keep events accessible, with free student passes and affordable tickets.Wider reflections on UK tech, government policy, and why so many top firms move to the US instead of scaling at home.Ashley stressed that Black Tech Fest is about changing narratives: showing that Black people can lead in tech, business, and creativity, while building a global platform that centres community and opportunity.

The Black Effect Presents... Black Tech Green Money! Alphonso David has committed his life to actualizing a more just and equitable world. Currently, he's President & CEO of the Global Black Economic Forum, focused on reimagining what diversity, equity, inclusion, and opportunity looks like in global workspaces and marketplaces, as well as achieving the notion of economic justice for the Black diaspora globally. The Global Black Economic Forum engages business executives, policy makers, entrepreneurs, activists, and consumers globally on thought leadership; corporate and entrepreneurial career development; and advancing social and economic justice for marginalized communities across the globe.  On this episode, Alphonso speaks with AfroTech's Will Lucas about how tech can be leveraged to support justice at scale, the overlooked sectors of our community when we talk about wealth and business success, and how Black operators find success with government contracting.
