New Podcast Episode
Check out our new podcast episode, Creating Caribbean Archives. In this episode, we talk to women working to preserve Caribbean culture and knowledge using different platforms.
The Caribbean People Podcast is a collection of stories from and about ordinary Caribbean people, playing critical roles in the production, preservation and sharing of knowledge about Caribbean life, history and culture. The podcast shares stories from people and groups working in the areas of history and culture, environmental health, environmentalism and climate justice, anti-poverty community development, decolonial education and literacy, and information freedom, among others.
Whether you’re listening on a walk, during your commute, or while winding down, we’d love for you to tune in and be part of the journey.
