Pathways Toward Financial Sovereignty + Art in Linqua Franqa’s Struggle | Issue #2
Hello, sisters of the world!
This week, we published a piece about financial sovereignty denouncing the impacts of neoliberalism on the economy of Latin American countries. The article, written by Rosilene Wansetto, Sandra Quintela, and Talita Guimarães, who are members of the Jubilee South Brazil Network, looks back on historical episodes that mark the transition to neoliberalism, explains the dependence on capital leveraged by the debt system, and points out ways toward financial sovereignty and a development based on good living, solidarity, identity, and creativity.
Solidarity and struggle for justice are also the foundation of what inspires Mariah Parker, also known as Linqua Franqa. “If I die, don’t pray, riot!”, they sing in the opening track of their latest album, “Bellringer.” A hip hop artist, cultural worker, songwriter, and emcee, Linqua Franqa uses their music to bring people together, address the struggles against racism and for social justice, and celebrate life and emancipation. Learn more about their work and listen to their latest album in the article published at Capire this week.
