This week we revisit a dynamic show featuring two musical acts that are countercultural icons in their own ways and in separate countries. American born sisters Leah Song and Chloe Smith and their band Rising Appalachia share their unique brand of "Hillbilly World Music" and chat about how they promote the slow movement in their touring practices. Now exiled in Sweden, Egyptian Ramy Essam travels the eTown to share the songs that led to his becoming the voice of the 2011 Egyptian revolution that overthrew an oppressive leader. Also with us is Joseph Teipel who shares his story about Re:Vision an organization dedicated to building community food independence in the Westwood neighborhood of Denver.
That's all this week on eTown!
