Song for Berta
In honour of Berta Cáceres's 50th birthday today,
Jófríđur Ákadóttir (JFDR), Sandrayati Fay and Damien Rice wrote a song inspired by Berta's life and work. Berta was an Indigenous Lenca land defender, from Honduras, who was murdered 5 years ago. The injustice of her death feels like it became an emblem of strength for community to gather with unwavering defence in support of what she believed in, with a call for humankind to wake up and protect the environment. All proceeds go to Copinh. copinh.org/en/ Here's a link to buy this wonderful new song: https://songforberta.bandcamp.com/tr...a-unmixed-demo :smiley32: |
Jófríđur Ákadóttir (JFDR) is one of the two twin sisters involved in Pascal Pinon's music. :)
