Everyone asked of you yesterday is about Jason who misses a family event that his girlfriend, Christine, expected him to be at. The conversation which ensues as a result of his no-show eventually unpacks the real reasons for his absence and calls into question their relationship.
A brief glance into what initially appears to be a regular afternoon with Jason and Christine, this is a story about falling out of love with one's self. It also shares the difficulties young black men have opening up and the importance of knowing that we are loved even when we don't love ourselves.
Even in dark moments where we feel like running away from everything and everyone:
there is reason to stay and know that there is hope for us yet.
"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
