Happy New Year everyone! On this episode of the WeSurf Podcast we step out of Rockaway and speak to Director David Mesfin and Executive Producer Beyin Abraha of the documentary 'Wade in the Water: A Journey Into Black Surfing and Aquatic Culture.' This documentary reclaims the 1000 year old tradition of Black Surfing throughout the globe, by honoring the historical and contemporary relationship between Black people and the ocean.
We discuss the documentary, the world of Black surfing and surfers, the historical common threads that bind Black surfers together and how we can support the next generation of surfers.
