Sprouts
Sprouts Radio from the Grassroots is a 30-minute weekly program featuring radio programs produced at community radio stations or by other independent producers from across the country and sometimes around the world.
In this edition, Water security is about a lot more than just water–it’s about education, politics, poverty and history. Follow this group of young producers as they hear from a headmistress who found that her school’s water infrastructure had collapsed completely. In her story they find also the story of the Missionvale Township, the struggle against Apartheid and the warm, enveloping culture of South Africa.
After, hear from Obasi Onuoha, an MIT student that has a deep connection with his computer.
