Anna B Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Awww, I'm so sorry the hear this. Benjaman Zephaniah wasn't just a poet but an all round good guy. Activist and friend to many causes, funny, gentle, and humble with it. A sad loss and at such a young age. R.I.P. Benjamin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron99 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Saw Look North the other night. Apparently Zephaniah has been living in rural Spalding for years, which was a surprise. That allowed Look North to run a piece basically claiming him as one of Lincolnshire's own. Always found him to be intresting to listen to.
