My name is Manja Ristić, and you are listening to the Framework radio International Women’s Day special.

> https://frameworkradio.net/2024/03/880-2024-03-10/

In this edition you will hear sounds and creators from South Africa, Marocco, Ethiopia, Lebanon, Iran, China, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, and Columbia; Spain, Greece, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, and Slovenia; from UK, Australia, USA, Germany, Italy, and Ireland; with aporee sounds of morning prayer in Ramallah, and bird’s song from Jerusalem – I am taking you for a journey around the Globe presenting the real sonic history of the world, the one told by girls and women. From place to place and from heart to heart, these voices hold the space together, storytelling from the shadows of oppression and discrimination, with wounds inflicted by systematic neglect, poverty, and wars – these authors speak the truth and nothing but the truth.

I am deeply humbled to present works by fierce creators, researchers, mothers, activists, freedom fighters, tribal elders, and one famous nun, life-long expats, and former sex workers; extraordinary versatility, and contemporaneity of their sound, being their common denominator, is what will mark this International Women’s Day Framework mix.

On this edition of the program we hear from Palestinian sound artist and musician Byjayr. This interview was originally included in a major broadcast for Radio AlHara in Bethlehem, but I thought it would be also important to share this conversation as a stand alone exchange. Byjayr (Jeena) speaks about her creation process, journey as an artist and shares reflections on the critical importance of speaking up for Palestine today.

Music on this edition is Passage by Anarchist Mountains.

214, Status/Non-Status artist interview

On this edition of Free City Radio we hear a recording of a panel discussion that took place at Concordia University in Montreal, entitled Voices of the Immigrant Workers Centre. The panel focuses on the grassroots organizing in one of Montreal's former garment districts in the city around supporting garment sector workers at Lamour Inc. who were facing mass layoffs. This panel highlights a campaign that took place at a grassroots level, largely outside of the formal labour sector and took place at the intersection of many points of systemic violence targeting workers, all of whom were racialized immigrant textile workers. Information on this panel can be found here:

On the program we hear from the event host Lauren Laframboise, IWC activists and organizers Yumna Siddiqi and Mostafa Henaway, as well as the host of this program, Free City Radio, Stefan Christoff. 

Background information on the oral history interview series that aired on Free City Radio for this project to document the campaign that the Immigrant Workers Centre organized to support Lamour Inc. workers can be found here:

Stefan's work on this event was supported by the Social Justice Centre at Concordia University and took place at the Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling (COHDS).
