hey there, my name is samael and im really trying hard to make some friends. i keep moving around irl which means making connections is tough atm so i need some online friends who can live in my phone and come anywhere w me <3

im 21, nonbinary, and very outdoorsy as well as very punk. im in 2 bands and go to local shows often, but during the summers im mostly just busy fighting wildfire in british columbia, canada

i love vintage camping aesthetics a lot because i enjoy the idea of a time when things were made to last, but i also listen almost exclusively to goth rock and punk rock. i think i have gravity falls vibes, im extremely nd about bloodborne and any frankenstein or reanimator-esque media, i try to practice pagan witchcraft when i remember to, and im the best damn gardener around

France Has Assassinated 22 African Presidents Since 1963 | The African Exponent.

Here is the list of African presidents who have been assassinated by France since 1963.

Literally thought this was almost exclusively a US thing in recent history. Kind of dumb of me

[imanes]

in case you’re interested in learning more about it, there’s actually a term coined to describe france’s neocolonial agenda in african countries so if you look up “françafrique” you’ll get a clearer picture of the french geopolitical agenda and the tight grip they are keeping in africa. imperialism is still thriving and there are other players outside of the usa that are using the global south as a chessboard and shredding it to pieces through military and economic interventions backed by national industries (although i will say that the english wikipedia page is one massive propaganda ploy undermining french influence on african soil and the motivations behind it)

The Hanoi Pick-up you Didn't Hear About

[swartzmark]

"As we advanced, slowly and tentatively, unsure of our next step, the Ritual of Exorcism took shape. I heard it before I saw it, across a vast distance, then suddenly very close: people chanting and wailing weird harmonies and cacophonies of a hundred musical instruments sounding at once, legions (a couple of hundred) of familiar and strange gods invoked, to drive out the demons that infused this Pentagon with its evil power. As we got closer the 'priests' looked bizarre (sackcloth and Merlin’s hats are all I can remember now), probably stoned out of their minds, yet surprisingly straightforward and earnest about what they were doing. 'End the war, end the fire, end the plague of death,' we shouted antiphonally after each invocation." --Marshall Berman, "Sympathy for the Devil" (1982), reprinted in Dissent

bro i LOVE indigenous fusion music i love it when indigenous people take traditional practices and language and apply them in new cool ways i love the slow decay and decolonisation of the modern music industry

[pencildragons]

I WILL !!! I WILL DO THAT

some of my favourite indigenous artists, in no particular order:

Inuit artists:

the jerry cans (esp their album Inuusiq)

beatrice deer

twin flames

Māori artists:

jordyn with a why

Indigenous australian artists:

tilly tjala thomas (i particularly love ngai yurlku nhiina)

kardajala kirridarra (srlsly check out ngajabu (Grandmother's Song))

i've also heard good things abt Baker Boy, but i haven't checked out his stuff yet

[columbidaae]

Another one for Inuit artists is Piqsiq! Two sisters who’ve been doing traditional throat singing since they were kids. They make some really gorgeous, eerie, atmospheric stuff. Highly recommend watching this video of them performing live a cappella using a looping machine, because they might be the coolest people on the planet actually

For anyone into North Asian and Central Asian folk music, there's this incredible Siberian folk-pop band called Otyken! The group is mostly women and they're from multiple indigenous groups in Siberia, with songs being sung in their range of different languages. They're so much fun and their music videos are amazing!

[alqemizzy]

i'll go ahead and recommend The Halluci Nation (formerly known as A Tribe Called Red), an EDM group from First Nations Ontario that do really cool fusions of First Nations music with dubstep, moombahton, and hip hop.

[emeraldraccoon478]

I really really really appreciate people who share videos on posts like these, because almost without a doubt every time I love the music but I’ve never got the spoons to click on links and look through a bunch of music or worse google the artist I always end up too overwhelmed to start and I hate that

[morathicain]

Haven't seen Belle Sisoski here yet so here we go: she's the current Artist of Year for BURO impact Awards. She's from Malaysia and knows how to play an insane amount of ethnic instruments and mixes them with her own voice. She does covers and her own songs, mixes ethnic instruments with Techno and shows the process. And she's also a live DJ at 19!

And one of her own:

Oh and of course there's also the HU and Bloodywood for people who like more rock and metal mixed in:
