The Industry Edit took a little break but we are back with another episode (and it's a great one, too).

Blogger, Roxy Legane, joins me on the podcast to discuss her new YouTube channel @Kidsofcolourhq. Roxy created this platform with the hope of sharing the experiences of young people of colour living in the UK. 

We discussed Roxy's blog Growing Up Mixed Up, how an undergraduate degree in Criminology helped create KidsofColour; and why the two are so closely interlinked. 

Further discussion includes things that have recently inspired Roxy; what the future has installed for @KidsofColourhq and tips/advice for anyone that wants to explore their own experiences of Race. Plus, hear Roxy's tips for going freelance!

You can email us any thoughts, comments, suggestions on this week's episode at: theindustryedit@hotmail.com or tweet us @industryedit. And please do rate, review and Subscribe! See you in a fortnight!
