Bye for Now!

A soundscape of Kampala merged with Uganda's story of textiles, created by Ssozi Joseph of Gorilla Waves.

This piece was initially made for the VINTAGE OR VIOLENCE exhibition in Galiraaya Plaza. An updated version of it now closes the VINTAGE OR VIOLENCE podcast, and pulls from our previous episodes and Vox pops to paint a picture of Uganda's complex relationship for secondhand clothes.

This recap 'episode' is a trip down memory lane for our early listeners, or a delicious taste of what to enjoy for new ears!

HELLO, BANGUI

Sunday, September 17, 2023 • Duration 31:49

Textile boutique, Ndara, uses the act of creation to restore dignity and autonomy in the Central African Republic. Founded in 2017 this women’s cooperative has been instrumental in employing and upskilling victims of on-going violence in the region. From weekly leadership, math, and literacy classes to producing quality hand-made artisan products from upcycled textiles, Ndara has built something truly exquisite in one of the least known and poorest countries on the African continent.

This episode, in conversation with founder Charlotte Mararv, we explore the possibilities of existing outside ‘survival mode’.

MORE IS MORE IS MORE

Sunday, August 20, 2023 • Duration 29:27

The global fast fashion market is projected to grow from $106.42 billion to $122.98 billion in 2023 alone. (source)

In conversation with Aja Barber, author of “Consumed”, this episode highlights the global and environmental cost of fast fashion; and hands power back to the consumer, away from the corporations.

Through the lens of Aja’s own journey - growing from being a fast fashion enthusiast to an international slow fashion spokesperson, we learn about the personal, emotional, and psychological reframing that is necessary to divest ourselves from a lust for ‘more’ in the world of textiles.

ONE DOLLAR, ONE VOTE

Season 1 · Episode 6

Friday, August 6, 2021 • Duration 19:26

The 2015 EAC call to ban second-hand clothing was noble and complicated. Eventually, Uganda had to pull out, but the conversations to-ban or not-to-ban continue. This episode takes on the popular Ugandan Kimeeza (round table) debate format - a 360 look that brings us into the discourse at the heart of the second-hand clothing trade. With guests that include the Chairman of the largest second-hand clothing market in the country, and three activists who are for the ban, Bobby and Nikissi ask for ways in which we can reimagine the clothing and textiles industry for the economic benefit of the country.
