Ep 33: Kava Tonga Part 2

from Wai? Indigenous Words and Ideas Hosted by Arcia Tecun

This episode starts by contextualizing current issues and how kava is connected to them. I also confront some of the various impacts of commodification and commercialization within a larger context of ecological and economic crisis. Is kava threatened of being gentrified? Do you know where your kava comes from and how it was processed, what it contains, or how it got to you? Have you thought about the different varieties of kava, their parts, or its chemical composition? I conclude with an ancestral Tongan kava story and a contemporary song that seeks to remember it.
