we. were talking ribbing ago and now they're attacking everyone in myanmar do you regret words like we listen absolutely with a woman it would be great we meet with global news makers and about the stories that matter syria. today we revisit the music of indigenous artists who've played our right here on the stream stage so stand by for my moon also known as mimi fresh to hear how she tell operates with other indigenous artists to create a powerful mix of music and activism also on a playlist front war on the native american hip hop artist raps in the lakota language we start with a grammy nominated colombian canadian singer and songwriter leader. is going to be

joining us in just a moment but 1st here she is performing on the stream in 2018. performing either on the stream 3 years ago. back. it's been a lot. of a lot has happened a lot has happened we were performing on the grammy. album has been

recognized worldwide miss colombia. i was beautiful i was able to you know bring to the world the baby that was inside of me when i was there for me for a year. and now now she takes over my life everything colorful in my studio is for her this is her little modern home that i made out of cardboard so she can help me so they just continue to resist yeah yeah i'm thinking because you we just what you perform which is 3 years ago which is about indigenous rights. respecting mother nature do you see looking back than evolution in your music do you think i've grown i've changed i'm doing something different now i think that i am in constant motion and in constant evolution and i think that until our

struggles and until the things that we're seeing about and in peace and in the right and in the right hands then i'm probably going to start singing about other things you know but i feel like there's an evolution in sound and that my message is only becoming stronger for sure through nomination for best latin rock or tentative album featuring traditional colombian instruments and afro colombian album what does that mean for people in colombia and also i think when canada what do they tell you about that. everyone was extremely supportive and extremely happy. you know i'm not really a person that is reading labels and things like that and i do feel like a lot of my music does come out of my heart but when it's recognized you know that the sounds come from a specific place or a specific people it gives us more strength you know which is what my

music is about so people are very happy very proud in canada are people are in full celebration so. yeah i mean i made sure that i made my message clear i made sure that we performed that we created a show you know and that's where we gave people so i'm very proud and very happy to have shared a stage with 2 afro indigenous artists happy that we were able to feature all latin american colombian art so yeah we did what we came to do we're looking at some of the pictures from your grammy performance and. i was looking at the comments this is literally the most beautiful form of pure art i've seen in the longest time this is mesmerizing this is art tell us about how you conceptualize the look of your performance what were you trying to do. everything that i do.

comes with intension everything that i do everything that i put out i have already thought about it some of the imagery comes to me in trimix some of the imagery i collaborate with visual artists that are like minded. this collaboration for the grammys idea with art is orally anon and she is a colombian artist based in mexico city and that we have a beautiful friendship and she also did our direction for the cover of my album so it only made sense that i work with her again we've done music videos together and i work with an all crew of indigenous black. or. artists and that's why you can really see one with the reaction is so true because that's exactly where all of the art came from from memory from. all of our struggles and the love that we have for color and nature that's what that song

is about and that's what the performance was about the grammys are expanding how much space they have a latino artist and i remember when you were on the stream 3 years ago you talked about why he's saying in spanish why that's important let me just remind our audience what he said well here 1st i will ask who can speak spanish and then there's like 2 people and then and then i like well this is the perfect time to download your reset a stone app or. you know like i don't know that app exists but i do know that there are a set of stone multi-lingual programs that were really hot so i'm like there should be an app for that you should download it because i am not about to translate this i'll contextualize a little bit. and it's good. but i thought people coming round to your way of thinking because the performance at the grammys thought you were nominated the

reception of miss colombia how do you feel people are now looking at indigenous artists where they may not be performing in english which was if you want to be successful you kind of have to sing in english. yeah i think that the dominating people into music industry the majority are people of color and that a big branch of the mainstream. music industry are you know caribbean descendant. colombia and you know that are making a sort of mix between pop and. caribbean sounds you know what i do still is art and it's not something that is readily. sold to the masses like some of the pop that's out there but i do feel like because music in spanish has been more aseptic. i don't really because you know

2nd and 3rd generation people my age and like the youth are listening to the music you know their culture and their country to represent them so i feel like the music industry simply reflecting what the audience wants you know and because it's still an industry and because it's still a business a business they're realizing that they have to make space for other languages and other cultures and which will have ways to go but you know i embrace any kind of change in the right direction. put me into bach on the stream after a 3 year hiatus over a scoring always fascinating. class yes. gass yes amy.

thank busy busy busy. next on our play lists my mood i use this a k

a move fresh when she appears on the stream she shared a story that made my eyes a roll by moon a native american and african american but was told by the t.v. show american idol that she wasn't american idol to compete they said i was too ethnic i was too afaik and if they have an ethnic idol they'll be sure to give me a call yeah so. what does that even. even me i mean if you are the values. you know.

'd you have a unique backstory i guarantee no one else has a back story like yours to prove i'm going to show our audience some pictures that he let's start with this one here have a look at my laptop this is stunning i'm going to show a picture of your grandmother and your mother this is where your musical inspiration the musical education started would you explain because a lot of people would look at these pictures that say what. tell us. what. i learned was being at home with my mother and my grandmother in the kitchen a lot of times people were x. my mother was a little vocal coast to train of this thing and they think that she's going to you know sit up at a piano and teach them notes and she'll make them come you know shop corn and pick

greens and because traditional people singing is. like reading is like praying it is a part of what you do as as a. a person as a part of the community you know as. social have you come feel the song breathe the song do chores you know it's a part of life a living part of expression when i was a small girl i would always see my mother my grandmother people would call them and they would travel all around. people to take their bodies to sing into their bodies you know later on you may look at it doctors use the vibration of sound to move matter inside of bodies and they were doing this with their voices you know not educated in the western but they knew the power of sound and vibrations so that's kind of how i started both my parents i mean my parents and my grandparents had already converted to islam but my grandmother was a choir director from chicago so you know that we were muslim she was still teach

me. spiritual from slavery and she would teach me traditional native songs. that we had to really learn after the freedom of religion act was passed from native americans that was until the seventy's we couldn't practice our culture into the seventy's so you know a lot of the culture that was lost because of indian boarding schools and natives being forced to forget who we were we had to go back and read learn those things so by the time i was born you know my grandmother was just starting to really learn the language because we couldn't even talk about it you could even talk about being indian people thought she was mexican you know. and i mean and you know mexicans are indigenous to that's why you see so many similarities in the southern tribes i mean it's an imaginary border you know they're indigenous as well and so people didn't know she was choctaw so later on she went back to learn the traditional ways and she was able to teach that i mean.

she. she. she. she. she. she she was

a. she . she she. was she. was. it was coming.

from the daughter of freedom fighters and bombers of the number run. place where the indian summer. that go just song is called in song in the lakota language i know that melody is going to be going around in your head o'day since appearing on the stream my mooney yusef has continued to blend activism music most recently joining other indigenous activists and musicians to make the protest song no more pipeline blues it was released on state support the protests against the construction of minnesota's lines trade tall science pipeline. i find autistic day as frank wall who doesn't sing in the lakota language he raps in it genocide the suffering of native americans and the fight to protect that allowed the things that

runs through frank's music as through this number my people come from the lot. like white. folks. the. polls. take.

it take you. to capitol.

when frank. 2018 he wanted to find out how he. to change perceptions of. his full. exploding so you sampled a disney song from the animated feature the 1983 animated movie peter pan and turned it on its head so tell us about that so i produced music and i was that was the 1st time i ever actually sample all vinyl i found a record in a children's venue vinyl sold in minneapolis for a dollar and i've always wanted to do something with that song just because disney has a pretty horrible history of stereotype. in my people and it's there in the music and so i always look for creative ways to foot things like that on their head like and i just want to point out that a song is full of racial slurs for indigenous people but it came off of a children's record and you know so i just by doing that alone it kind of shows you where we're at in this country as far as how we look at aintree indigenous people you have this line in there where you say what made you think the red man was dead

or something paraphrasing a little bit and i know you have a story where that actually happened what is surprised yes so it was my 1st week in a so i graduated from columbia college in chicago i got my bachelor of arts and audio arts in acoustics and the 1st week i was there i was living in a dorm room in a dorm building in downtown chicago and i got in the elevator and this girl got on the elevator with me and she was non-native she commented on my hair should i get really pretty hair where i knew i was like you know thank you and she didn't know what that meant and so i had to be more general and i was like a native american and she looked at me confused and she was like you guys are still alive you know and just think about that we got college educated adults living on stolen call and i was glad to think we don't even exist.

trying to. explain. this.

so. you know i think at its core hip hop was created by colonize people who were stolen away from their homeland stolen away from their culture and trying to recreate something that was taken from them so i think hip hop at its core is coming from

indigenous african force where indigenous people as well we all are calling nice people so i think that's why as an indigenous person i resonate with it because it was created by calling nice people and it's drawing from indigenous traditions. and that's it for our show today. on passouts. see you next time. i'll be shot now chop chop chop. chop chop. chop. chop. chop. chop. chop one. it's not. gonna. be cheap

yeah. yeah. why not chop chop chop chop probably one. of the by now which one chopped up one with charcoal and one child we chopped up the charcoal one touched. mine now to a child's. play now each child but now we chop by now if you chop above . come home a. head. cold. but.
