Today we will hear music from Canadians reflecting the rich diversity of this country. New Canadians with backgrounds in Columbia, Ecuador, Senegal, Rwanda, Ghana, Madagascar, Guinea, Iran, and Cuba. We will also hear First Nations and Inuit musicians who are recovering and revitalizing their cultures and taking them to fascinating new places; necessary after attempts by Canada to extinguish these First Nations and Inuit cultures. There is much to love about Canada, but it is not unconditional love. Canada will never be a great nation if we do not acknowledge its attempts to eradicate its Indigenous peoples, commit to reparations, and commit to eliminating the inequity facing Canadian First Nations, Inuit, and Métis.
| We start with a terrific 2002 collaborative recording featuring some of Canada's best African guitarists, Alpha Yaya Diallo, Pa Joe, Adam Solomon, Mighty Popo, Donné Robert, and Madagascar Slim. They represent musical backgrounds crossing the entire African continent, from Guinea, to Madagascar, through Ghana, Kenya, and Rwanda. |
