A few clips shot @ RISE, before Boris Johnson became Mayor of London this year always known as London's *anti-racism* festival.

Ty speaks out against reports that Boris Johnson plans to pull the plug on the RISE festival next year. Previously, Ty explained that he had seriously considered withdrawing from the festival when the Johnson administration removed its anti-racism message - a message never more important at a time when a BNP member has been elected to the GLA - but that he decided to use the stage to speak out against the dumbing-down of the message instead.

Ty's set also included cameos by rising UK hip-hop singers Bashy (above) and No.Lay (below). Both grabbed the opportunity with both hands.
