Episode 15: Jack Spanners and Fire
In this week's episode, Raafeke shares some touching experiences he has had, from the healing benefits of working with clay to the power and importance of reading black authors, specifically Toni Morrison. He then touches on the world's biggest AI sensation, ChatGPT, and what it means for writers before sharing a recording of the song, "Mbadi-o Dem Dei-o", a traditional wake and Nancy song performed in Carriacou in the 1950's/1960s. Raafeke touches on how folksongs adapt to their environments as well as holotropic breathing before sharing his short story, "Jack Spanners and Fire". This episode brings an end to the "Cromanti Collection", a group of short stories Raafeke has written inspired by the Cromanti (Akan) nation of Carriacou's Big Drum Dance.  If you are enjoying the show, please share, subscribe and leave a review.
