Strength&Solidarity is taking a break and that gives us a chance to re-up some favourite episodes.

Here’s Coda #3 in which US civil rights veteran Charles Cobb Jr looks back to 1963 and a chance meeting between some young black activists in the segregated south and a future Kenyan Vice President. That event went on to be celebrated in a song that became a favourite in the civil rights movement.

And don’t forget there are nearly 50 codas for you to explore – young activist poets in Sudan’s brilliant but sadly defeated revolution; a young US lawyer recalling the profound connection he found in 1980s El Salvador; a human rights ED who took up his guitar and sang us a lovely Mercedes Sosa song – not to mention favourite poems, music and activities – from wild swimming to reading to the kids at bedtime. It’s a treasure trove for you to explore - take ten minutes out to decompress and experience someone-else’s world.
