Luis García Montero and Alonso Ruiz Rosas in conversation with Verónica Ramírez
Cultural fusions
–
Teatro Arequepay
Ever since the Inca Garcilaso said, over four centuries ago, that he was a mestizo and proud to be so, much has been written, said and discussed regarding the exciting and often dramatic processes of mixing cultures, something that characterises a large section of Latin American society. Two poets, one Spanish and the other Peruvian, discuss this matter, together with the moderator, the Peruvian writer and journalist Verónica Ramírez. Luis García Montero is a poet, professor at the University of Granada and current Director of the Instituto Cervantes. His most recent poetry book is Un año y tres meses. Alonso Ruiz Rosas has published a poetry book, Contra el Leteo (2023), and is the former Director of the Inca Garcilaso Cultural Centre. The novel by Verónica Ramírez, Casi todo desaparece, has just been republished in Spain.
Astrid Madimba and Chinny Ukata in conversation with Matías Zibell
Africa is a continent
–
Centro Cultural Peruano Norteamericano (teatro)
The podcast and book It’s a continent are two of the best contemporary introductions to the history and current affairs of African countries intended for a broad public. Created and produced by two British communicators with African origins, Astrid Madimba and Chinny Ukata, it explores in an entertaining and accessible way the history of each African country, dismantling myths and celebrating the cultural and historical riches of a set of countries and peoples that constitute a very large percentage of the world population. Together with the BBC journalist Matías Zibell, Madimba and Ukatawill tell us how the idea for the podcast arose, and why it is important to communicate the reality of each African country to a world that still has much to learn and a long way to go in terms of decolonising.
