If there was a domestic "Black" British Broadcasting Company (BBC) channel run by "Black British people"

(as there is similar services like the Asian Network and various services for countries & regions outside the UK)

then it "could" be filled with stories of attacks/abuse by people in positions in authority and of incidences of pathetic abusive behaviour carried out against "Black people" and made into huge dramas (and "disciplinary meetings") BY "management" where "Black people" become the ones being disciplined for not reacting correctly to the abuse and, of course, the abuse by the abusers has neverending excuses made for them.

Illuminated, Charter Renewal, News Avoidance
Feedback

Illuminated is Radio 4's home for powerful, original audio storytelling - and recently we've heard from listeners who were moved by a documentary called Functioning, about the effect of alcohol addiction on two women's lives. Andrea Catherwood talks to the programme's producer Jodie Taylor, and Radio 4 documentary commissioner Hugh Levinson, and hears a remarkable insight into how the programme came to be.

Feedback's listeners are pretty clued up when it comes to giving their thoughts to the BBC, but we came across one last week who seemed to know more than most - as it turned out, he did a PhD on charter renewal. Andrea talks to Dr Tom Chivers, academic at Goldsmiths, University of London, about what the BBC can do to reach its audience during a consultation that could result in radical change.

And following our discussion of news avoidance on last week's programme, we hear from a listener who has discovered his own method for avoiding news that feels excessive, or irrelevant.

Fire Ready
Fire Ready by Jane Rogers
Episode 5 of 5

The stories in Jane Rogers' second collection shine an unflinching light on the future health of the planet, and the prospects for its greediest tenants - us. With stories spanning hundreds of years – from the far side of the 22nd century all the way back to the darkest days of lockdown – they pose questions about personal responsibility that cannot be easily answered.
