#InterculturalInsights on #WMPG alternates between four different segments... A brand new one, #TheWeavers, airs on the first Tuesday of the month at 11:30am - 12 noon (right before #DemocracyNow). The other three shows are great as well... Shows available for five weeks after airdates via the audio archives...

"Intercultural Insights offers four different shows that air once a month.

On the first Tuesday of every month The Weavers are weaving the values of their ancestors into the world we share today. Hosts #LisaSockabasin and #NancyLaCoote explore #Wabanaki values and how these values are lived (or not lived) today.

"On the second Tuesday of each month, #ReturningTheLand is hosted by USM professor Dr. #DavidLowry, the founder of the #IndigenousPeoplesTrust—an initiative calling for justice and the return of Indigenous land.

"The third Tuesday of the month features Dr. #IdellaGlenn, the Vice President of Equity, Inclusion, and Community Impact at USM with her show: Building USM’s Beloved Community. Unspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Beloved Community, Dr. Idella Glenn sits down with members of the community to foster and embrace the all-#inclusive spirit of USM.

"And on the fourth Tuesday of each month, #VoicesAndVisions: The #Podcast is an #Artisttalk series that features #IndigoArts Alliance’s alumni artists in residence, highlighting their similarities, creative #intersections, distinct voices, and their residence experience. Each episode is a conversation between two artists while they were in residence at Indigo Arts Alliance."

I'm sure this is just a coincidence, but I can't help finding it horrifically funny that they used the name "Paul Campbell." Paul Campbell was a pseudonym used by the Weavers for their writing, and of course, the Weavers played the music (by then 30 to 40 years old), that I listened to in my teen years and which put me hopelessly out of touch with my generation.

"Mbube" by Solomon Linda's Original Evening Birds (Gallotone, 1939)

The South African original that begat both #TheWeavers' "Wimoweh" in the 50s and #TheTokens' "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" in the 60s - here in all it's pre-WWII 78rpm #falsetto glory.
