On Tuesday, March 2, the ALANA Cultural Center released the second episode of “The Kinder Culture,” a podcast series that seeks to create a safe space for Colgate community members to discuss cultural issues. The podcast’s debut episode, “Ethiopia: A Current Cultural and Political Crisis,” centers around an interview with Associate Professor of Biology Engda Hagos, who is from Ethiopia himself. The second podcast episode, “Farmers Protest in India,” also involves government corruption against an ethnic minority. Rosbrook added that through this podcast and other initiatives, the ALANA Center seeks to create a platform for different cultural issues to come to light and to be discussed by community members. Podcasts are easily accessible to foster the expansion of knowledge and advocacy to hopefully create a “Kinder Culture.”
