[Repeated from Tuesday 6pm.] Young people living in the UK, talking about the stuff we wish we'd learnt in school.

Today: episode 1. 17 year old Atlanta spent the first few years of her life living in Uganda, where her mum is from. Now she lives in Glasgow, Atlanta feels like the version of British History she’s learnt paints the UK in a pretty positive light. Loads of her friends don’t even know about the British Empire - they didn’t learn about it in school. Atlanta asks: Is it possible to know the truth of what happened in the past, or is history different, depending on who’s telling the story. This documentary mentions some of the brutal violence that occurred during Colonialism. Take care listening. Producer: Jesse Lawson. A Boldface Production, supported by the Audio Content Fund.

Radia
Radia, the international group of independent cultural radio stations, presents a new show realised by one of its members, exploring "new and forgotten ways of making radio." This week, Show 945: Entramadas Anfibias, by Léa Roger (for Radio Panik). "At the start of 2023 we conducted expeditions with our microphones in the Tariquía and Carrasco National Parks, located in Andean forests and mountain jungle (Yungas) in Bolivia. We found ourselves in the heart of the paradoxes of conservation, far from a romantic view. The Carrasco National Park is an ecological corridor where the last specimens of the Sehuencas frog are found, in danger of extinction by a construction of large hydroelectric plant while the Tariquía National Reserve is threatened by hydrocarbon extractivism. Communities try to resist to the interventions of the companies. This sound-poetic piece, created by two hands, seeks an ecology of encounter to build new relationships with others - humans, animal species, plants and the elements." Recorded and composed by Léa Roger (Be) & Cristina Canedo (Bol). Mixed by Léa Roger. [Repeats Wednesday 3.30am.]
