Afropop Worldwide for June 09, 2010
7:30 PM - 8:30 PM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: "World Cup South Africa, Part 1--Cooking with Georges in Cape Town, South Africa"
Cape Town is one of the most beautiful cities on earth. At the southern most tip of the continent, South Africa is a vast melting pot of peoples and cultures including Bantus, San, Indonesians, Indians, Dutch and English. And the cuisine reflects that. Georges Collinet goes to the home of Faldela Williams who invites us into her kitchen as she cooks sugar bean curry and roti. Faldela warns that you can't cook curry too quickly. It needs time to sweat and blend so we have plenty of time to hang out and listen to great music by Cape Town's favorite son, Abdullah Ibrahim, Outernational Meltdown, and others. Also featured are side trips to nearby Madagascar and Mozambique.
A one-hour weekly showcase of music and information from Africa, the Caribbean, and the Americas. Hosted by Georges Collinet from Cameroon, Afropop Worldwide draws on an unprecedented array of reporters, artists, and cultural guides to present an hour that is authoritative, comprehensive, and hugely entertaining.
Afropop Worldwide blends a rich array of global music with lively interviews and insightful stories on world-class talents and the music they create. Each carefully crafted broadcast features live concert tape, exclusive interviews, visits to musicians' houses, urban ambiance from around the African Diaspora, and rare recordings.
