EN (dubbed): Connecting the Dots with ELVIS GUERRA 30.06.2026

The Zapotec people of southern Mexico have long recognized more than two genders. In Juchitán, in the state of Oaxaca, a person born with a male body who lives a feminine identity and role in the community is called muxe. This is not a "third gender" in the Western sense, but a distinct identity, rooted in Zapotec culture, that predates and exceeds any category borrowed from the outside world. Elv...

PT/ES: Connecting the Dots com ELVIS GUERRA 30.06.2026

O povo zapoteca do sul do México desde há muito reconhece mais do que dois géneros. Em Juchitán, no estado de Oaxaca, uma pessoa nascida com um corpo masculino que vive uma identidade e um papel femininos na comunidade é chamada de muxe. Não se trata de um «terceiro género» no sentido ocidental, mas sim de uma identidade distinta, enraizada na cultura zapoteca, que antecede e ultrapassa qualquer c...

The Batwa are an Indigenous People of Africa's Great Lakes region. For thousands of years, the Batwa of South-western Uganda lived as hunter-gatherers in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.

In this episode, we travel to Kashija vi...

EN: Connecting the Dots with KAKÁ WERÁ (dubbed) 06.02.2025

Over the last 30 years, the emergence of contemporary Indigenous literature in Brazil has become a fundamental act of re-existence. While the preservation of Indigenous Peoples’ territorial rights remains the most visible aspect of their struggle in Brazil, this fight would be incomplete without defending their intangible heritage. Their worldviews, their symbols, their ancestral knowledge. In thi...

PT: Connecting the Dots com KAKÁ WERÁ 06.02.2025

Nos últimos 30 anos, a emergência da literatura indígena contemporânea no Brasil tem surgido como um ato fundamental de re-existência. Se a preservação dos territórios materiais dos povos originários é a face mais visível da luta do movimento indígena no Brasil, é igualmente verdade que essa luta estaria incompleta sem uma defesa dos territórios imateriais - as visões de mundo, símbolos próprios e...
