This video is the third episode of a place I can go home series. And this installment I’ll meet up with my friend Viya at Brixton station.
Viya has been living in Brixton for the past four years. She’s originally from Fulham but moved to this neighborhood to explore gnu a Rison‘s.
Viya took us on a tour of Brixton. After the beautiful artwork at the Brixton tube station we went to Brixton market. It was beautiful to see so many black owned shops and to look for and see fresh vegetables, fruits and utilities.
After that, we walked in Viya‘s favorite streets of Brixton. She showed Me Electric LnRoad and explained its importance in Brixton. As we were walking around and Viya was very knowledgeable, explaining the history of Brixton we stopped by Brixton Village. On our way there we saw Papa Brixton, beautiful murals and a lot of wonderful and very appetizing restaurants. Inside village Brixton, we had a really interesting conversation about the gentrification of London and of Brixton. One of the things that Viya explains in her episode of a place I can call home is that The reason she loves living in Brixton is because of its diversity. Brixton, like every other neighborhood in London, has been touched by gentrification but it’s resisting it or at least not completely stripped from its people because of it. Inside Brixton Village we saw so many restaurants with wonderful smells but also beauty shops and even home decor shops. We stopped by Viya‘s favorite restaurant called Eat of Eden.
After that, Viya took us to her favorite store to shop in Brixton. Diverse is a black owned shop that displays a lot of black on brands. You can find anything in it from books to candles, mugs and beautiful jewelry.
As we were talking, I could see how passionate Viya was by her neighborhood. I think it fits her beautifully. It is as colorful, vibrant, lively and courageous as she is. For the last part of this video, we sat down at the black cultural archives. Viya explained that this place has been open since the 80s and is a record for all the history of British people of African and Caribbean descent.
As the bells were ringing we ended our Brixton London tour. It was wonderful to spend this time learning about a neighborhood and the love letter that this episode of a place I can call home is for Viya.
I hope you enjoyed this video !
