The Fierce Urgency of Now is named after a speech from Hakeem Jeffries,

Democrat Representive in New York City, who used the phrase to talk about

the Capitol Building. We’ve since learned the phrase was used by Dr Martin

Luther King Jr. in his ‘I have a dream speech’.

Vic & Gareth Wolf met at Dartington College of Arts at the inaugural
