Joining Through A Memorable Screening
- Yvonne joined Race Matters after attending a film screening and feeling drawn to the community work they did.
- She then applied to be social media producer after listening to episodes and appreciating their experimental audio approach.
Radio As Experimental Art

Tuning Visual Practice To Sound

- She wants to tune into sound more and experiment with how sonic textures carry political and revolutionary thinking.
