MATHEW TEMBO - THE TEACHER I WISH I HAD
Listen now
Description
Copperbelt University dips in for a bite size bonus. We had a long chat and are due another but this is a taster. Listen to a Zambian musician turned educator say it like it really is. A direct and fun bit of storytelling outlining truths about remote, rural and urban realities, academics, creatives and the decision makers missing the mark when it comes to education, linguistics, arts and a whole new way of thinking. In eight minutes he breaks down the reason why decolonising and a cultural rich resource needs to transition to a new generation. We had so much fun my inner child came out to play. Expect to hear the full conversation for real, with no messing with audio real soon. Mathew is also a composer and amazing kalimba player. Cue the patent.
