And all with the unfailing attributes in the face of collapse, of hope! Respect for Djalòki, Ayibobo pou Djalòki!!! Visit his website to know more about his work. In the best way we could possibly have imagined we began our "on the ground" interviews for this podcast bringing Haitian voices to the public, when we were honored to have our very long time and dear friend, Djalòki. Djalòki Dessables (he/him) is a Creole from Ayiti (Haiti) with Taino, African, and European ancestry, Ayisyen 1,000%, to share about his life, his family, his vision of Ayiti, complete with his special vision for humanity. Djalòki's current work is as he describes on his website: "If you feel that there is more to you, to life, and to "reality" than what you are told, what you perceive, and what you think you know, and you want to expand your experience and understanding of how you fit in and are connected with the universal webs of consciousness, ⁠Djalòki The Awareness Expansion Coach℠ ⁠may help you tap into your inner knowing and capacities that will allow you to remember and manifest your Soul purpose. The time is now, if that is your choice.” Some links to our music: for the Intro and Outro portions from our band ⁠2 Rasin or 2 Roots album⁠, our video. The short audio clips are by ⁠Chou Bwa Libète⁠, a Haitian cultural band and just some of Ron's sweet fingerpicking of the Haitian folksong, Ayiti Cheri. We are still novices at this audio editing but believe that you, the listener, will forgive the bleeps, bumps, hiccups especially from international calls and authentic "on the ground" street noises along the way, all in the name of remembering and hearing the voices of the remarkable people of Haiti. Here's the English translation of the theme song, "N a Sonje" We will remember, and not forget what happened Let’s take a look back Into the world gone by and we’ll see How our ancestors were in Africa before they carried us away to America Ref: Sing for Africa, Sing for America Honor for Africa, Honor for America Who lost so many in the years long ago it wasn’t the natives of this land that did that to them It was another nation who had as their mission to make others slaves, making so many cadavers Pillaging, killing - Indians and Africans in making them work for nothing This is how their countries became powerful by spilling so much blood. Ref: Sing for Africa, Sing for America Honor for Africa, Honor for America Who lost so many in the years long ago
