Beschrijving

Lusaka-born and based curator and archivist, Sana Ginwalla is interested in stories - hers, yours, ours. ⁠ In exploring archives, memories, and heritage. ⁠ In visual history and multiple truths. ⁠ ⁠ She is the founder of Everyday Lusaka a project that became a platform and now also includes a gallery dedicated to the documentation of daily life in Zambia, and Zambia Belonging, a counter-archive project that got its legs when she discovered unclaimed photographs in Fine Arts Studio - one of the capital’s oldest photo studios. ⁠ ⁠ Ginwalla joined Chana Musakanya for a beautiful conversation about her identity as the child of immigrants, the themes her work engages with and interrogates, and championing Zambian art and artists.⁠

37: Episode 37 - Mumba Yachi: The Man who Lost Everything Twice!

When you're deported from the country you call home, most would pack up their dreams and disappear. Mumba Yachi didn't. He rebuilt his life, embraced both his Congolese roots and his Zambian home, and kept making music that refuses to fit into a box. Since then, the man behind the mealie meal sack suit and the underwear-on-the-head fashion statement has continued to walk his own path. He's won a Zambian Music Award, picked up an international film prize in Paris for his short film Tazara, survived his bamboo studio burning to ashes, and built a sound he calls "Yachi Music" — a fusion of Kalindula, Rhumba, and folk that is unapologetically his own. Mumba Yachi sat down with Chana Musakanya for an exclusive interview and we were fortunate enough to get to know the man behind the headlines, the costumes, and the controversy.

36: Episode 36 - Patricia Ellis Chama: Loss, Grit and Becoming

Before she became Zambia’s favourite TV presenter, Patricia Ellis spent eight years out of school. She was twelve when her father died, failed her Grade 9 exams, and survived by peeling cassava and waiting tables just to get by. In this episode of Nkwazi Unfiltered, Amina Kaunda sits down with the ZNBC news anchor and actress to walk through the parts of her story most people never hear. Patricia talks honestly about the long fight to finish her education, her early days in radio, and what it actually took to earn a seat behind the main news desk.
