Carnival 2025 was in full swing—music pumping, flags waving, and the streets alive with energy! In the midst of all the bacchanal, we took a moment for storytelling, reflection, and good old-fashioned liming.In this episode, we sat down with Soka Tribe’s Sokanista at members family home in San Juan, Trinidad, for a conversation over buss-up shot.
We dive into:
The roots of Soka Tribe Carnival traditions worldwide
How community & culture keep the spirit of Carnival alive
The role of food in the carnival experience
