69. Luciana Souza is a Light in the Darkness! Jun 25, 2025

Show notes

Hi! I've reuploaded this fine interview with Luciana Souza, after a copyright violation (for including a song).

This is definitely worth a listen, though. Given what's been happening with the current regime, it's more important now than ever.

Brazilian vocalist/composer Luciana Souza gives us a history lesson about growing up in a dictatorship in Brazil. We then discuss how Brazilian musicians used songs to convey messages, and we contemplate how we can all take small actions to make a difference.
