‘We all climb the ladder together’ |
This week’s issue of Time Out magazine, brought to you in collaboration with Google, is all about the capital’s Black-owned businesses. It’s a cracking read, guest-edited by Ashley Walters. The ‘Top Boy’ star gave us his thoughts on London’s Black businesses, his experiences in the weird world of pop music, and from-the-heart advice for Black Londoners wanting to make it in the creative world. | |
