NOVIEMBRE CONSCIENTE

​
DESDE LOS AÑOS 70, varios movimientos negros en Brasil reivindicaban que se celebrara la fecha de la muerte de Zumbi dos Palmares, lider negro que en fines del siglo 17 formó, con su compañera de luchas Dandara, una gigantesca comunidad acogedora de hombres y mujeres fugados del trabajo esclavo.
Finalmente, en el 2001, el 20 de noviembre fue reconocido como el Día de la Consciencia Negra.



​Para potenciar esta importante reflexión, muchos colectivos aprovechan todo el més de noviembre para dar visibilidad a las cuestiones que implican a la vida de los negros y negras en sociedad.

Aquí no será distinto. El Ciclo Mujeres, el Colectivo Afrofeminista y Mujeres Negras Viviendo en un Mundo Paralelo, con el apoyo de otras entidades, presentan el MES DE LA CONSCIENCIA NEGRA (III Ciclo de Dandara a Marielle) en la ciudad de Barcelona.

En esta edición del programa Caipirinha Libre nuestras invitadas (Dai Sombra, Katherine Reyes Paredes) hablan de las diversas charlas, presentaciones y actividades para dar mayor conocimiento sobre los negros y negras en la capital catalana. Escúchalo en el siguiente enlace:

​The word that serves as theme to this episode, 'juiz' - which can be translated both as a 'judge' in the legal system and as the 'referee' in field sports - was chosen because at the time of the live broadcast Sérgio Moro, the judge who manipulated the 2018 presidential elections in Brazil by having the most popular contender arrested, was the subject of a series of journalistic pieces by Glenn Greenwald's The Intercept revealing...

This week like most weeks, the Caipirinha Appreciation Society podcast does not focus on a single style but contrasts several different periods, regions and moods in Brazilian music.
​But yes, there is a strong presence of songs about the social struggles, racism, sexism and gender rights // Originally broadcast on 06/Nov/2018 on Contrabanda 91.4 FM.

Sometimes in life we find ourselves in a crossroads of history. Sometimes we don’t even notice there is a crossroads, sometimes it’s so clear and obvious that it scares us.
We feel paralized. 
If we take the wrong turn there is no way back without a lot of struggle, suffering and even risk of death. 
We know what is the right path, we shout and scream to the crowd moving in the wrong direction,
but they seem deaf and blind. 

The choice Brazil is facing in this 2018 Presidential Elections are cristal clear: 

Democracy or dictatorship.
Civilization or barbarism.
Human rights or death squads.
Civilian government or Military coup. 
Freedom of speech or censorship. 
Religious freedom or fundamentalism.

It is obvious that the CAS crew has chosen its side in that struggle, but...

In the dark days of the 1964 dictatorship in Brazil, the military governments had a civil servant placed in all major newsrooms exclusively to censor any information that was not in line with the ‘reality’ dictated by the government’s filter of what ordinary folk were allowed to know. 


​Big chunks of the front and internal pages of the newspapers were censored, so some editors decided to give readers a clue that part of the news had been withdrawn: some left an empty space where the text should have been, some filled it with poetry and others with recipes. 

This episode of the CAS was...

THE U.R.S.A.L. Affair

When we created the Caipirinha Libre show the whole point was that it would be different and independent from the Caipirinha Appreciation Society. But a couple of weeks ago we just couldn't help sharing a theme in the sibling shows: the imminent danger of Latin America becoming one big communist bloc.

The ins and outs of U.R.S.A.L. (as the new country is to be called) you will understand once you listen to either episode. It was supposed to be the central theme for the the Caipirinha Appreciation Society, but since the CAS is presented live one day before Caipirinha Libre, we were left with a whole lot of excellent songs (many of which suggested by our listeners while we were on air) which we weren't able to fit into the two-hour broadcast. So there you have it: we just had to repeat the same theme to our portuñol listeners the following day.

No, we are not Lula voters. 
We are not PT voters. 
But we are ‘legalists’ or ‘constitutionalists’. 
We believe individual rights guaranteed by the Brazilian Constitution should be respected and enforced by unbiased judges.

We believe every Brazilian citizen should receive a fair trial, from Lula to Rafael Braga  
We believe the law can not be adapted to suit political and economical interests.

The Brazilian Judiciary system created a whole new interpretation of the law to stop one man from running for president. Our supreme court reverted many of its previous decisions  to incarcerate and prevent one Brazilian citizen from running for president.
