It remains available to stream or download on the &nbsp;BBC Sounds website and wherever you listen to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.GTPCG.com\">podcasts<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This chapter introduced a new, innovative platform for George\u2019s global community of listeners to share their &nbsp;responses to Chapter 3, extend the experience of the podcast and find common ground. The COMMON &nbsp;GROUND experience begins as a conversation with George, and once listeners are onboarded, then the &nbsp;platform presents a few questions about each episode in the podcast and facilitates written, audio, image and &nbsp;video-based discussions between George and his listeners.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>COMMON GROUND also showcases original artworks by black artists around the world and creates &nbsp;opportunities for listeners to reflect more deeply on each episode, give George their feedback, and share ideas &nbsp;with fellow listeners in a community space called \u2018The Commons\u2019. Contrary to social media platforms, &nbsp;COMMON GROUND does not focus on &#8216;likes\u2019, instant replies and addictive dopamine hits, but instead &nbsp;encourages users to click a &#8216;lightbulb&#8217; on fellow users\u2019 responses if the post opened their mind and made them &nbsp;think about an issue a little differently.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With more than a thousand sign ups already from nearly 50 countries around the world, the platform brings &nbsp;together diverse points of view and relays listeners\u2019 answers back to fellow users, illustrating that there is a &nbsp;COMMON GROUND where people\u2019s ideas can meet. The driving force of the discussion is George\u2019s exploration &nbsp;of Black music, as users join him on his train of thought.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have an idea. For years I have written poems about the highs and lows of Black life, and for years the &nbsp;driving force behind this poetry has been Black music. In this chapter, I look at the unifying power of this music, and how it has transformed the world. &nbsp;These episodes walk you through historic injustices that sparked Black music movements, which &nbsp;created fresh opportunities &#8211; over and over again. &nbsp;This process has always seemed random. Jazz in America. Reggae in Jamaica. Grime in Britain. But it\u2019s &nbsp;clearly not random. What if the world anticipated this genius? What if 150 years of musical &nbsp;innovations in the harshest circumstances have proven Black music to be a safe bet? What if the &nbsp;listeners supporting this music were able to tackle the problems behind it? Could this be the future of &nbsp;art? &nbsp;To test this idea out, I have created an interactive platform &#8211; called COMMON GROUND. This online &nbsp;discussion space allows listeners to dive into the world behind the words alongside original artworks &nbsp;by global artists,&#8221; said George The Poet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This 3rd chapter of \u2018Have You Heard George\u2019s Podcast?\u2019 weaves the yarn of Black music through history, &nbsp;culture, market economics and social impact. In episode 23 \u2018Back To UG\u2019, George shares his views on Ugandan &nbsp;politics and tells the story of how a romance blossomed with his long-time friend and now Operations Manager &nbsp;and wife, Mrs. Sandra Mpanga. This episode also dives into the politics of Uganda, reflecting on the internet &nbsp;blackout experienced during Uganda\u2019s 2021 election and the rise of Bobi Wine as he grew from music into &nbsp;politics. Chapter 3 also tells the story Uganda\u2019s independence movement in Episode 24 \u2018The Sixties\u2019 alongside&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The American civil rights movement of the same era. Other episodes in this chapter share the chronicles of Jay Z\u2019s youth, an epic beef between Movado and Vybz Kartel, and how R&amp;B has changed over the years, among &nbsp;other \u2018edutaining\u2019 stories that demonstrate the influence and market potential of Black music. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Background<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>George Mpanga&nbsp;alias&nbsp;George the Poet, is a Peabody award-winning, British&nbsp;spoken-word&nbsp;artist, poet, rapper, and podcast host with an interest in social and political issues. Mpanga came to prominence as a poet, from which he progressed to spoken word and&nbsp;hip hop. He created a podcast entitled&nbsp;Have You Heard George&#8217;s Podcast?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, his new platform the COMMON GROUND is an experiment displaying some of your answers in &#8216;The Commons\u2019, &nbsp;founders George Mpanga, Paul \u2018Benbrick\u2019 Carter, Anne Whitehead and Darshan Sangharajka are working hard behind the scenes to analyze the data and bring in artists, friends, and thinkers to illustrate that they can find COMMON GROUND between the way people think; this can be the beginning of a new way to address the social issues George talks about in the podcast \u2013 together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 3 of \u2018Have You Heard George\u2019s Podcast?\u2019 aired its final episode on the &nbsp;16th September on BBC Sounds, Radio 4 and Radio 1Xtra.
