Rhythms of Resistance

Jitsvinger (real name Quintin Goliath) is a celebrated South African artist from the Cape Flats known for fusing hip hop, poetry, theatre, and storytelling into a distinctive performance style rooted in Afrikaaps—the vernacular Afrikaans dialect of Cape Town. In this radio interview, Jitsvinger tells us about how his heritage influenced his music. We hear how Indigenous Khoi and San languages mixed with Dutch and languages from others who were brought to South Africa as slaves, contributed to the formation of Afrikaans, and how this heritage influences his music.

Hongos comestibles de Santa Fe de la Laguna, Michoacán en lengua Purépecha

Los pueblos y comunidades Indígenas del mundo administran o mantienen la tenencia de más del 25% de la superficie terrestre y sustentan alrededor del 80% de la biodiversidad mundial. En sus territorios hay selvas, bosques y otros ecosistemas que han sido resguardados desde tiempos ancestrales junto a cientos de variedades de plantas, hongos y animales. Este es el caso de la comunidad purépecha de Santa Fe de la Laguna, Michoacán, México, en cuyos bosques de propiedad comunal se conservan distintas variedades de hongos comestibles.
