AfroReggae and Urban Connections

Monday, October 8th, 2007   Vote

Damian Platt used to be Brazil campaigner at Amnesty International and is now the coordinator for international partnerships at the cultural group AfroReggae.
This episode we will talk mainly of the ‘conexoes urbanas’ (urban connections, especially the last show with Marisa Monte). Next week we get his idea of music as a vehicle in a city/district and life in favelas.
