About this episode
Síle Seoige hosts a powerful conversation with photographer and activist Misan Harriman about his work and recent challenges he has faced.
Today’s Real Take comes from a powerful conversation I recorded in October 2024 with photographer, filmmaker and activist Misan Harriman. Misan is Chair of cultural hub, the Southbank Centre, an ambassador for Save the Children, and one of the most compassionate and courageous voices speaking up about injustice and inequality in the world today. Through his photography, filmmaking and activism, he has consistently used his platform to amplify voices that are too often ignored; especially concerning children. Over the past number of weeks, Misan has been the target of what many believe is a deeply disturbing smear campaign by sections of the UK press. I stand with Misan. If you would like to support him, please consider adding your name to this Petition To listen to the full conversation with Misan from October 2024, search 'Misan Harriman: Bridge Building' wherever you get your podcasts.
