Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse wel­comes Ali­son McDow­ell in the first half-hour. Ali­son is a moth­er and inde­pen­dent researcher based in Philadel­phia, Penn­syl­va­nia. She blogs about the inter­sec­tion of race, finance and tech­nol­o­gy at wrenchinthegears​.com. Tiokasin talks with Ali­son about her recent blog, Timp­si­la, Med­i­cine for Tech-No-Log­ic.” Read her blog here: https://​wrenchinthegears​.com/​2020​/​08​/​07​/​t​i​m​p​s​i​l​a​-​m​e​d​i​c​i​n​e​-​f​o​r​-​t​e​c​h​-​n​o​-​l​ogic/.

In the sec­ond half, Tiokasin wel­comes back Manuel Rozen­tal. Manuel is a long-time Colom­bian activist, researcher and com­mu­ni­ty orga­niz­er. Hes been involved with grass­roots polit­i­cal orga­niz­ing with youth, Indige­nous com­mu­ni­ties, and urban and rur­al social move­ments for four decades. Manuel joins First Voic­es Radio” to bring us an update on what’s hap­pen­ing in Colom­bia in South Amer­i­ca. There con­tin­ues to be an alarm­ing increase in the num­ber of Indige­nous peo­ple being mur­dered in that coun­try. Manuel brings us the lat­est news, his obser­vances and analy­sis of the ongo­ing and con­stant­ly evolv­ing sit­u­a­tion with reports of Indige­nous peo­ple (includ­ing chil­dren) being tor­tured and mur­dered dai­ly, a sit­u­a­tion that Manuel says is worse and worsening.”
