Chante Joseph

I am a recent Politics graduate from the University of Bristol who is now trying to find a path that merges the creative with the political. Whilst at university I took up several roles outside of my degree that fuelled my passions. I was chair of my Labour society, President of my African and Caribbean Society and the Black and Minority Ethnic Officer. My most notable project was 'Bristol Is The New Black' a space dedicated to telling the stories of black students, providing a platform for conversation and safe space to create. Following on from this I curated Bristol's first ever city-wide campaign to find the 100 most influential BME Bristolians. We printed and distributed an amazing publication and hosted a firey event with the community. During the event, both the Mayor and Vice Chancellor agreed that the list should be a permanent citywide annual event. Post-university I worked for six months with the Marketing team at eBay and now I am on The Nest incubator programme at Hearst working on some of their most notable brands. I also do freelance, writing, speaking and hosting. Feel free to get in touch hello@chantejoseph.co.uk
