Londoner #41 | Samson Ramirez, who uses street dance and rap to better his life

Samson is a reformed gang member from Ilford who found that Christianity provided a replacement father figure on his way out from trouble. Now an accomplished dancer and rapper, Sam is a positive force and role model for young urban teens. This film was made by young people participating in Tower Hamlet’s Futureversity at Rich Mix Cinema over a 5-day 1000 Londoners workshop.
