A UN designated day for Education, January 24th. To be educated, what does that mean, especially in Haiti, what does it take? Amazing stories from our community and this is just the tip of the iceberg. As always we believe that each life and each story on our podcast represents thousands of others, like precious gems in a toolbox, as well.
Dieuny is staff with the N a Sonje Foundation and the photo for this episode is Dieuny, me and Mackencia in costume for a history presentation we were giving to a university in the Dominican Republic in 2018, I think. In Dieuny's story he tells about the play he saw for the fist time and then became a staff person himself as well as one of the actors too! There is a video of this play called "3 Innocents and a spirit" that was filmed for the Foundation's 5th anniversary celebration. And remember the listener support for this episode will go to help Dieuny finish his dissertation to finally get his degree!
I hope you feel taken to location as you hear the children play and the wind blowing from time to time in Dieuny's story as he sits outside to record on his phone since the internet connection wasn't strong enough to do a direct conversation.
2 Roots music, uncut version plays another song as intro and outdo to Dieuny's story.
