To honor the life and work of Dr. Wangari Maathai we present a collection of recordings of Maathai as aired on Pacifica Radio stations over the years.
Through a mix of commentary and interviews….
from Pacifica Foundation Director Arlene Engelhardt,
KPFK producer Asumpta Oturu,
Hard Knock Radio Host Davey D,
BBC host and From the Vault producer Joanne Griffith,
KPFK host Doreen Keys,
and WPFW producer Fahima Seck,
we come to appreciate the incredible depth of this human being, and draw inspiration from her life to change our own behaviors for the sake of humanity and the world.
We’ll also hear Wangari Maathai on stage at Final Push: The Long Walk to Justice, an event designed to pressure world leaders at the 2005 G8 summit in Scotland, and Maathai participating in a special called “Women of The World,” an original 2008 production by the Pacifica Radio Archives.
