A personal account of Black community spaces in the UK, focusing on Caribbean diaspora. By visiting the site of the former Keskidee Centre that is now luxury apartments, the film considers the conditions which allowed this historical space to thrive. Also visiting the exteriors of the George Padmore Institute, West Indian Cultural Centre and High Commissions for Dominica and St. Lucia, the film explores the reasons why gathering in physical space is difficult because of the premium cost of space and the often free labour or government funding needed, both of which are scarce. We see the architecture of surrounding developments driven by rampant capitalism. Can the digital realm replace a physical community presence and produce an accessible archive for a new generation?
