With so many great artists performing, the crowd of around 30,000 was well entertained πŸ₯³ But the best was left till last with the legendary king of lover's rock reggae, Beres Hammond headlining the show.

Professor James Small, a scholar-activist and former Africana Studies instructor at City College of New York, made provocative remarks about racial superiority.

In the statement, Small declared: β€œBlack men are superior to them [white men]. Put us on any playing field, be it physics or football, and we will win. Give us the same opportunities and we will win.”

Small is known for his work in Pan-African studies, organizational consulting, and activism tied to groups like the Organization of Afro-American Unity.

16/5/2026πŸ˜ƒ Many thanks to those who turned out to attend the BSI Social & Networking event last week. It was a memorable occasion with wonderful speeches from local MP Luke Murphy, ward councillors, entrepreneurs, community leaders and young people πŸ‘

In the wake of the local elections, there was a stong message from local politicians and community leaders about the need for communities from all backgrounds to remain united against the forces that are trying to divide us πŸ‘Š βš–οΈ πŸ‘Š

It was also inspiring having leaders from community organisations, Black History South (Southampton) and the Cultural Forum (Andover) deliver presentations which was inspiring. It was really nice during the "Open Mic"🎀 part of the Programme to see a number of young people present, come up and present their stories and ambitions πŸ˜€πŸŽ€πŸ”₯

The catering by Da Spottt Caribbean Catering was delicious and well received πŸ«’πŸ²πŸ«’as well as the music 🎢 which created a good relaxed social atmosphere πŸ‘„πŸŽ™πŸ˜€

The event also helped to build the BSI brand in the community and engage the audience of nearly 50 people with our economic empowerment work in the Black community and acheivements in education, mentoring, promoting businesses and community engagementπŸ’°πŸ‘Š πŸ€‘

Special thanks to Luke Murphy MP, Cllr Jacky Tustain (Mayor of Basingstoke and Deane), Cllr Sajish Tom (Deputy Mayor of Basingstoke and Deane) and Cllr John Mckay (Communities portfolio) πŸ‘ Thanks always to the community and partner agencies for their continued support πŸ˜€
