Radio as a liberatory tool...

 

This is a show with a goal to address the sociopolitical issues relative to African people and our experiences, in ways that promote positivity, awareness, and pro-activity.  We (who host the show) are currently located in the U.S.; however, wherever we are on the globe we are all connected, and none of us will be free until Africa is free!

 

The discussions will be combined with positive and political music of various genres (jazz, funk, rock, soul...  and much more), as composed and performed by a long line of descendants- ancestors and present folks. We love to play music which advocates for a higher consciousness- spiritual, political, etc.. We aim to air alternatives to the individualism, materialism and single-issue solutions we are conditioned to advocate for.  We feature book highlights, guests who contribute to pro-activity in their respective communities and an opportunity for the listening community to become involved in conversations, by calling in. We are but one way to honor the liberatory process- we cannot do it alone!

Healing from narcissistic trauma...

Airs at: Thu, 04/27/2017 at 8:00pm - 10:00pm
We have been thinking about this for a while, and we decided that now is the right time to speak about narcissism and its effects.  Not only have we seen the effects of it in our own lives, but in many other places we did not expect.  It may seem as if this is a new(er) phe... Read more

Airs at: Thu, 04/13/2017 at 7:00pm - 10:00pm
The inundation of increasingly compact technology is said to 'free us up' from being tied to one place, enabling us to create larger (global) communities, based on our interests and ideologies.  What we have seen though, is that this has led to the marketing and perpetuatio... Read more

African Sensibilities in Cinema- A Conversation

Airs at: Thu, 03/23/2017 at 8:00pm - 10:00pm
We believe the role of 'great art' is to reflect the struggles and will of the masses. Great art holds a mirror up to society, and critiques those who control society's narrative.   It may be visually (or aurally) pleasing, but great art is always going to make you think. ... Read more
