Poet John Agard performs with musician Keith Waithe at Havant Arts Centre on 22 October 2008. The first piece, 'Flute Boy', is John's tribute piece to fellow Guyanan artist Keith. Keith then joins John to play as he performs his poem 'Marriage of Opposites'. And lastly in this extract, John performs his well-known poem 'Half-caste' (now on the GCSE English syllabus in UK schools!). This extract is from Pamela Robertson-Pearce's film JOHN AGARD LIVE! (available on DVD with John Agard's new book ALTERNATIVE ANTHEM, out from Bloodaxe in February 2009). There's another extract from this film on Vimeo page 1055802 where John performs his 'Alternative Anthem' along with an audience at London's Soho Theatre.
