Meet Swiss, best known as a member of BRIT and MOBO award-winning group So Solid Crew, who rose to fame in the early 2000s. And now most recently, the  creator of Black Pound Day.  BPD first launched in the wake of the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement on June 27 2020 and takes place on the first Saturday of every month. It encourages the community to buy from Black-owned businesses and services for the day. 'Black Pound Day is a positive initiative that is helping rebalance the discrimination that we face as Black people.' Are you buying Black?
