Piña Soul: ancestral
WHY DOES THIS PODCAST EXIST
This podcast exists because too many voices doing powerful environmental work are not heard. Across the globe, Indigenous peoples and Black and Brown communities are leading climate justice and conservation efforts without the recognition they deserve. Their stories rarely reach the masses, even though their knowledge, science, and lived experience are essential to protecting the Earth. The Flor de Piña dance reflects this work; just as dancers carry their harvest with strength, pride, and devotion, this podcast carries these stories forward, honoring resilience, responsibility, and relationships to land and future generations.
