Authentic Jamaicans from Kingston share the secrets of their happy healthy life. When people talk about organic farming in Jamaica, they usually think of rural communities and lots of land. However, this doesn't have to be the case. Today, I'd like to invite you to Jamaica's only certified urban organic farm, located just a few minutes from the center of Kingston, so we can learn how to start a farm in Jamaica, even if you have no land, or very little land, and especially if you'd like to make it a 100% organic.

What does natural hair really represent?

Across African societies, hair has long been a form of identity — communicating status, culture, and belonging. But through slavery, colonialism, and global beauty standards, these meanings were reshaped.

In this episode of the Sankofa Pan African Series, we explore the history and meaning of natural hair across Africa and the diaspora.

As part of our International Women’s Month series — African Women: Roots, Resistance & Rising — this episode examines how something deeply personal reflects broader histories of power.
