Related to our earlier discussions of colonialism and decolonization, the conditions of these farmworkers are brought into perspective as we consider the sytems and historical realities that created these conditions that the modern world is complicit with and must reconcile if we are to redeem ourselves spiritually, energetically under the watchful eye of the Ancestors who want better for ALL of us, 00:31:00Ukumbwanoindigeny,farmworkers,food industry,tomato growers,AncestorsToday's show will present information about the Coalition for Immokalee Workers, the corporatocracy, the food industry, indigenous peoples and a political actiDecolonization 2http://www.blogtalkradio.com/ukumbwa/2012/03/17/decolonization-2Culturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/ukumbwa/2012/03/17/decolonization-2/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/ukumbwa/2012/03/17/decolonization-2Sat, 17 Mar 2012 20:30:00 GMTDecolonization 2 This show will continue the discourse on decolonization and some of the elements that must be engaged socially, politically and spiritually to understand and activate decolonization of the mind and in our current social dynamics.   Ancestral Continuum will not be accepting live call-ins, but we welcome you to respond here on the show page, on the Indigeny and Energetics blog, on facebook and twitter.  Thanks SO much for listening in...and please do share your thoughts.   Barka.
