The Talking Drum Podcast presented by Guardians of Heritage
Episodes of the ‘Talking Drum’ podcast present intergenerational conversations between youth and elders as they explore community problems and share unique perspectives on solutions that could change the course of history. This series is a part of the Guardians of Heritage educational program and is funded in part by the Hewlitt Foundation and ABEN (A Black Education Network) with Georgia State University as the fiscal agent. In many African cultures, talking drums were used to share information and tell stories among and between groups, and during close knit gatherings of community members. It is in this tradition that our podcast series aims to share community voices, stories and perspectives as agents for social and community change.Thank you for listening and we invite you to share with others!
