HKR: Hard Knock Radio Wed May 14 2025 Pt2 of South African Refugees | Updates on Burkino Faso
Update: 2025-05-14
Description
We continue our conversation w/ Professor Danea Martinez about South African refugees...
Davey D introduced listeners to two powerful cultural workers: Refa One and Madzoo. Refa is a veteran muralist and political educator from Oakland, while Madzoo organizes on the ground in Senegal. Together, they form part of the RBS Crew"a group that operates across the U.S. and West Africa using Hip Hop and art to promote liberation.
Art isnt just about expression, said Refa. Its about consciousness. Its a tool of resistance. Both emphasized the importance of reclaiming African identity in the face of neocolonial dominance.
