105 - Shabazz Graham

Jamaica in the Caribbean

I grew up as a child of the care system and a lot of young people back in the 80s were leaving care badly. I was hired by the care system to do a documentary about leaving care well and I knew from then that filmmaking was what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. I've now spent the last 30 years in film and TV, and throughout the whole process of my experience as a filmmaker, questions have been central and at the core of all that I do. I started to get more of this kind of Eureka moment. After my film editor friend suddenly passed away I decided to honour him by creating a new social media platform and communication tool called Qcast, which simply means question cast, which operates by allowing you to share questions with the world on scale.

Clouds - for me, it's one of the most beautiful and dynamic parts of our planet

My story of hopefulness is Cultural style week which is an organisation set up by my wife Candy, who launched cultural style week as a way of enabling everyone to embrace and share their culture through the power of fashion.
