DESCRIPTION:
The Lively Up! Festival tuned into a conversation between saxophonist/composer, Denys Baptiste and poet/author, Lemn Sissay as they discussed Denys' new work 'NOW IS THE TIME' for which Lemn has contributed his poetry.

'We have to search through our past for inspiration that can take us through the traumas of the present'. Lemn talks about the ongoing relevance of Dr Martin Luther King Jr's 'I Have A Dream' speech and how 'there are other Black men saying incredible things for everybody'.
