Welcome to Filthy Ritual - our brand new 6-part series on the Hoax Healer of Hampstead

Ruben Brave loves exploring the unknown, with a curiosity that drives him to a wide variety of places and an innate talent for generating visions for the future. His story involves serial tech entrepreneurship: having set up several tech companies across Europe, Ruben has always been ‘one of the geeks' (and a Spider-Man fan). Another side of him is fatherhood, living in Amsterdam, with roots in a big Surinamese family – providing him with cultural capital and a spiritual background that he brings with him into work and business. Having spent so much time in progressive spaces, Ruben only recently became more aware of the massive impact of discrimination and exclusion. He spoke with 400+ people from underrepresented groups, people who don't tick all the boxes of the ‘default tech entrepreneur'. What he learned was that a lot of those people are being actively excluded through discrimination and less access to financial, social and representational capital. And they themselves see tech spaces as not welcoming. This makes valuable people move away from spaces that could in fact be interesting for them, and the world. It made him realise we need to see how we are all connected, on a planet with finite resources, where we can complement each other's limitations. There are many dimensions to everyone's identity. It is important to be aware of the historical and cultural narratives connected to parts of who you are, in terms of your gender, race, and more. At the same time, Ruben invites you to free yourself of the limiting aspects of oppression by also seeing yourself in a different narrative. Going back to your core and stepping into more than the framework that those limiting narratives can impose on you. That space of your inner leader where you know who you are and what you're capable of. How do you want to develop yourself, personally, to change the narrative and move the needle forward? What can you create from all that you are in a sustainable way? What is the first thing that you can do from where you are today?

For our first mix of the year, we keep it homegrown with Rotterdam duo @black-cadmium. Mike Richards and Joginda Macnack's artist alias is influenced by two things - their Surinamese descent, and a poisonous chemical which they say is a metaphor for "the discrepancy between one's capabilities and the world's view." Their own capabilities lay in mixing up everything from hi-tek to Detroit tech, London grime to Dutch electro. They have landed on labels like Vault Wax and really open up their collections for this week's podcast. In usual Black Cadmium fashion, anything goes here as they race through rave, bass, acid and club with relentless energy. The mixing is tight and quick as tracks fly by at a high pace but always in a great balance between the mind, body and soul. A jacked-up soulful house cut will lead to a double-time bass workout then deep and punchy Motor City sounds make way for head-wrecking bass futurism. Hold on tight, then, because this is one thrilling ride.

Up until now, this podcast has leaned heavily expat because that is largely the network we have access to, but I finally landed a native Dutch guest! I are excited to introduce you to our November guest, Odelia Djoe; Surinamese by birth and grew up in the Netherlands. Odelia has been designing her life on her terms while navigating her black Dutch identity, an often complicated topic in this culture. Our conversation covered all sorts of ground, including her upbringing and navigating the NL education system as a black kid, how she stepped into the corporate world and her passions outside of this space. Besides being a corporate badass in change management. Odelia is also a writer, passionate about song writing and education. She dedicates one day of her work week to that, as part of the 4 day work week phenomenon that is common in the NL, and she had interesting insights into that too. Odelia is an incredible ray of sunshine and positivity and a must hear story for a perspective of how it is to live life on your terms and embrace your identity, despite the systemic challenges she grew up in as a person of color.

The work of fashion designer Gary Symor is reminiscent of the transparency of mathematical beauty that one can find in the philosophy of architecture. His vision is a symbiosis between sensuality and technology. The combination of Gary's Surinamese roots with his respect for technology, industrial design and architecture creates a unique and infectious blend that exudes rhythm, vibrancy and inventiveness. His passion for technical innovations, spatial developments and sustainable (r)evolution can be linked to his great social awareness, helpfulness, care and commitment to making the world a better place. Symor was born in 1971 in Paramaribo. He studied mechanical engineering in Surinam. In 1998 he decided to go to the Netherlands to further research and develop his talents and interests. He worked for Moooi Boutique, Adlicious, Refinity, restaurant Bridges, Marcel Wanders and Kathryn Milan, among others. In between he creates his own collections where he makes optimal use of ecologically sound and sustainable materials and techniques. His eye for the human form, future and fairness is a definition of his strength as a designer and himself. Currently Gary Symor is developing a pattern cutting university. Where #smarthands will be trained to approach the fashion industry with a sustainable and innovative mindset. This university will be based in Amsterdam. And wil start in september 2021.

I came across Roshni's profile about a year ago when she featured on the Live Tinted Instagram page, and her story was so striking to me that I knew I absolutely had to bring her on here to have a chat. And it just so happens that we were both wearing the Live Tinted huestick when we recorded this episode! #notanad Roshni is a proud Surinamese woman, often mistaken at first glance for being Indian, yet at the same time being so deeply and proudly ingrained in South Asian culture. She graduated from Rutgers University in May 2018 and is working in the digital marketing space in New York. In April 2019, Roshni was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer in which she endured 16 rounds of chemotherapy, surgery and radiation therapy. Through her experience, Roshni is working to destigmatise what being a cancer patient is and to educate young women, especially those of ethnic backgrounds, to not be afraid to advocate for their health. What better time to do so than during October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. In this episode we speak about everything from her finally feeling some form of representation through fellow Indo-Caribbean Nadia from Indian Matchmaking, to getting a puppy (it seems there is a theme with these episodes!) to embracing her new hairstyle and wearing lots of colourful wigs, to surprisingly uncovering even more childhood-related traumas than cancer-related ones through therapy. We talk about experiencing chemo brain at work, and whether chemo hurts as much as they say it does? And also why it’s so important to keep your body in check, not letting societal stereotypes (and the patriarchy) shame you into not talking about feeling your breasts regularly. We also touch on the common idea of not wanting to ‘stand out’ too much in the workplace or among friends, yet still choosing to be outspoken and wanting to share our experiences with the hopes that it may somehow help somebody. I loved our chat and I hope you do too. Disclaimer: Thoughts and views expressed are our very own; we are purely speaking from our personal experiences and do not aim to offend or disrespect. If you have any concerns with any of the areas discussed, please reach out.

Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.In this episode I’m talking to a very funny comedian and amazing documentary maker Jamali Maddix. He came round for a hot Indonesian salad and we got into everything from pernickitiness through the literally the least possible moral options when it comes to eating. Everything written below in CAPITALS is a link to the relevant webpage. Honourable Mentions/ LinksFollow Jamali on Twitter to find out what he’s up to - CLICK HEREThe salad we ate was a recipe from RUKMINI IYER’S amazing book THE GREEN ROASTING TINThe absolutely fit booze-free lager we drank was called LUCKY SAINTI’m on this great site called PATREON where I swap your money for ace podcast related stuff like totally exclusive content and guest recipes.

Let’s talk to Kimberly Ofori, a 29-year-old powerhouse that has us hanging on her every word. Born in Amsterdam and raised in Almere, Kimberly is of Ghanaian and Surinamese descent, and claims to have been “ordained to be a lawyer” even before she was born! Having studied several courses at universities in the Netherlands and the USA, Kimberly’s educational background, though decorated, tells the story of her struggle to find a balance between fulfilling her parents dreams and also doing other things that she was great at. Always a go-getter, Kimberly moved to Dubai on a whim, working in business consultancy and setting up three businesses while she was there. The aptly named ‘Apreneur’ social network for African professionals was her latest project, widely known within the African diaspora community. Join us to hear more about how Kimberly changed her mind set to match that of the work environments she encountered, and what works best as leverage in the job market here in the Netherlands.

Born in the Netherlands and to Surinamese parents and raised in the two countries before moving to New York, Osei is a multi-platform artist, performing and writing for screen and stage. As a musician, Osei performs with Brooklyn-based bands The Woes and Big Hands Rhythm and Blues Band. Osei's recent film composition credits include the Emmy-winning documentary films Finders Keepers, Jim: The James Foley Story, and Tower, the Oscar-winning documentary short, Period. End of Sentence., and the acclaimed, Always in Season, winner of a Sundance Special Jury Award.

In Episode 2, I speak to Miranda Lowe, Principal Curator of Invertebrate Zoology at the Natural History Museum – and, yes, I ask her what ‘invertebrate zoology' means! I have long been inspired by Miranda's work unearthing stories about the important contributions that people of colour have made to the study of natural history and science, as well as associated collecting and collections, over the centuries. Miranda does not keep this knowledge within the narrow boundaries of academia or museums but, instead, she presents her research in many different ways to many different audiences. Recently, Miranda distilled her extensive knowledge and experience into an article she co-authored with Subhadra Das – I spoke to Subhadra about her work in Episode 1. The title of the article is: ‘Nature Read in Black and White: decolonial approaches to interpreting natural history collections', Journal of Natural Science Collections, Vol.6, pp.4-14. It is fundamentally changing the way natural history collections are researched, understood and presented. I ask Miranda about her research into Graman Kwasi, the Surinamese freedman, natural scientist and collector. Graman Kwasi has been little known outside specialist fields but, as Miranda explains, his legacy is in full public view on the ceiling of the Natural History Museum's Hintze Hall and she shares his story and those of others through public talks and other outreach work. Much of Miranda's research into the many people of colour represented in the NHM's collections and some displays was also included in the museum's Slavery and the Natural World project (2007).

I had the opportunity to travel to Amsterdam earlier this year for a Lenovo event we hosted with some EU colleagues. Before my travels I read an article in Travel Noire. There's so much more to Amsterdam than weed culture, but there's no denying that it's a huge draw. I wanted to dive deeper and reached out to Co-founder Taraq who was happy to have us use his place as our venue. Water & Brood's mantra is Good Food, No Bullshit”. It's a chic restaurant located near many of Amsterdam's famous museums and attractions where owners and brothers Rachid and Taraq Hok-Ahin serve everything from chicken and waffles and acai bowls to dishes inspired by their Surinamese roots.

Once a foodie wasteland, Copenhagen is today a major gastronomic destination.It is, of course, the epicentre of New Nordic cuisine — the culinary movement that championed hyper-local, seasonal ingredients and elevated foraging and fermentation to art forms.But it’s also a global food city — one where savvy diners can find everything from Surinamese peanut soup to Ethiopian injera, Vietnamese banh mi to Cantonese dim sum.Even the local government has gone gourmet. There are honey bees on the roof of one town hall, a gin distillery in the basement of another.In this episode, we take a snapshot of the Copenhagen food scene — and discuss how it’s changed, why that matters, and where it could be going next.Up first is American journalist Lisa Abend, who writes about current affairs, culture and food for the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Time magazine, among others.Then we meet Nick Curtin, Andrew Valenzuela, and Camilla Hansen — the co-founders of Alouette, which was awarded a Michelin star within a year of opening in a former envelope factory in Islands Brygge.Finally, we discuss the intersection of food and theatre with Rasmus Munk, the head chef and founder of soon-to-be-relaunched restaurant Alchemist, and its dramaturge Louise Knudsen.Further reading:Lisa Abend on “The Food Circus”https://www.fool.se/free-readAlouettehttp://www.restaurantalouette.dk/Alchemisthttp://restaurant-alchemist.dk/Archipelago is produced by Mothertongue Media — a new home for English-language podcasts in Denmark.

In this podcast, the Surinamese author Cynthia McLeod - who specializes in historical fiction - is in conversation with Dr. Audra A. Diptee of the History Watch Project. They discuss the relationship between history and literature. They also discuss the fascinating story of Elizabeth Sampson: A free black woman in eighteenth century Suriname who owned more than 10 plantations and over 1,000 slaves. Credits: This episode would not have been possible without the support of the Centre for Transcultural Analysis at Carleton University (http://carleton.ca/ctca/).

Indigenous groups are often given two choices: to stay in the rainforest or leave to enter "modernity." That was the case with Wuta in the Surinamese rainforest as Dr. Mark J. Plotkin recalls. To listen to more of the story subscribe to Maps, Magic, and Medicine

A Dutch food writer tries to discover the origins of pom, the national dish of Suriname. Is it Creole, based on the foodways of Africans enslaved to work the sugar plantations of Surinam? Or is it Jewish, brought to Suriname by Dutch Jews? So began Karin Vaneker’s immersion in the world of edible aroids. Aroids are a large and cosmopolitan plant family, more commonly known as the arum family, and they include some of the most familiar houseplants. Many of them have starchy roots or tubers, and although these often contain harmful substances, people have learned how to process them as famine foods. A few species, however, are widely cultivated. The best-known of these is probably taro, Colocasia esculenta, which originated in southeast Asia and spread through the Pacific and beyond. That, however, proved not to be the elusive pomtajer that Karin and the Surinamese inhabitants of Amsterdam were looking for, which turned out to be a species of Xanthosoma. My conversation with Karin ranged far and wide, and to tell the truth I never did ask whether pom was Jewish or Creole. Most sources say it is indeed Jewish. Notes The whole question of Jews in Suriname sent me scurrying to the search engines, to discover that starting in the 17th century there was indeed an attempt to establish an autonomous Jewish territory there, on the Jewish savanna. This I gotta read more about. And having found that, I rushed to Claudia Roden’s The Book of Jewish Food, only to be massively disappointed that neither pom nor Suriname feature in the index. The big photo is of purple-stemmed Colocasia, which I took at Longwood Gardens. As promised, a recipe for pom. You’ll have to find your own pomtajer. Karin has written on Cooking Pom and other edible aroids.

An early Media Network from 1983. We looked at the construction of KNLS in Alaska. There were also plans to build a mediumwave station KBQN on American Samoa. This was a Pacific version of the Caribbean Beacon. There were plans to build a 500 kW shortwave transmitter as well. The Surinamese government complains about Radio Netherlands broadcasts to their country. Victor Hafkamp explains the background. Radio New Zealand International may cancel its shortwave service. Radio Dublin is back on shortwave on 6910 kHz. We review the ICOM ICR-70 in great detail. Remember this was in a period when no website existed to share this kind of consumer information. Richard Ginbey does a profile of broadcasting in Swaziland. Victor Goonetilleke has been hearing KYOI beaming to Japan. 

Chinese immigration to Suriname is surging (a half a million and counting), and this has raised great concern among the Surinamese. There is a wide economic gap burgeoning between Suriname's native citizens and Chinese immigrants. The Chinese come seeking prosperity, and don't plan on leaving anytime soon -- James Whitlow Delano captures the settled life of Chinese immigrants in Suriname and the consequent tensions.
