What have we done?

Someone once said to me ‘Don’t you think you’re interfering in another culture, what you’re doing?’. Hilarious! The whole of Africa has been invaded, colonised, traumatised, raided for minerals.

Yoga Zambia

Yoga is yoga, it’s not a religion, not a belief system. I guess that’s why my friends in Eastern Province found that it fitted with their religious belief, be it Christianity or Islam. The physical aspect relieved aching joints from fieldwork, and the meditation created ‘Space in which to pray’. Nice. Please enjoy the podcast [https://ulingana.com/2025/01/08/yoga-zambia/]

Life on the compound

Isaac

Isaac was there when Northern Rhodesia became a republic and shook off the yoke of the colonial invaders. We started off verbally sparring, and slowly became firm friends, brothers. This is about a man with a big heart, big intelligence, and big storehouse of stories. Fifth in this series of podcasts from Eastern Zambia. Enjoy the podcast [https://ulingana.com/2024/12/04/isaac/]
