[Episode is in French/English/Kreyol]
To commemorate the anniversary of the assassination of Jean Dominique, Nèg Mawon Podcast gives you a taste of the archive of Radio Haïti-Inter and what it can still tell us today. Hear the voices of grassroots activists, intellectual luminaries, and, of course, Radio Haiti's journalists discussing human rights, artistic creation, US imperialism, dictatorship, memory, mobilization, and mawonaj.
The voices you hear from Radio Haiti’s archive clips include Sony Estéus, Magalie Marcelin, peyizan from Kay Jakmèl, a woman from Damassin attending a congress of the Mouvman Peyizan Papay, Emmanuel Ambroise, Roger Gaillard, Frankétienne, Rose-Marie Desruisseau, Konpè Filo, Charles Suffrard, Michèle Montas, and Jean Léopold Dominique.

(In the spirit of Konbit, ht/chapo ba goes to Dr. Laura Wagner for bringing Nèg Mawon Podcast's first-ever collaborative effort to fruition. It was truly a great and fun experience. This episode wouldn't have turned out as well as it did without her preeminent expertise on Radio Haïti-Inter--she's even got some post-production chops that are notable! Laura is truly a great human being, scholar, and permanent resident in the Lakou.)
