Nikki Bedi is on stage with top performers and artists from the city of St Louis, who are weaving their cultural histories into new mythologies, sounds and artistic landscapes.

There is live music from blues prodigy Dylan Triplett, a soulful performance from singer-songwriter and bass player Tonina Saputo and rousing comedy from Tina Dybal.

Multimedia artist Dail Chambers takes Nikki on a ‘Culture Cab’ tour of north St Louis, raising questions around segregation and the importance of Native American heritage in the city.

Post disciplinary artist, film-maker and musician Damon Davis explains his documentary film response to the Ferguson protests of 2014 and reveals why he has created an epic mythology of Black gods and a science fiction space rap opera.

And the discussion is joined by members of the live audience.
