Founded in 1999 and formerly known as Sigaw ng Bayan, Radyo Kapwa is an inclusive Filipino/a/x community and cultural radio show that celebrates the diversity and difference of people with roots to the Philippines. With three historical colonial invasions, multiple waves of migration worldwide, and over 7000 islands, we recognize and honour that Filipino/a/x/s are not a monolith. We provide a wide range of programming, music, and discussion topics to reflect this diversity.

Radyo Kapwa aims to share their platform with grassroots community organisers and organisations, as well as interviews with inspiring members of our community. Our framework is based on values rooted in decolonization, and restorative and transformative justice. Our mission is to create an anti-patriarchal, anti-racist, anti-homophobia, anti-transphobia, faith inclusive, non-ableist, trauma-informed space.

February 22, 2023: Ep. 30: Kétura Daméus, Law Student, Youth & Community Leader

Happy Black History Month for this February on the Turtle Island colonially known as Canada. For today’s broadcasting, we cede our platform to Université de Montréal law student and devout youth & community leader, Kétura Daméus. Tune in to listen to our rant as we tackled the significance of Black History Month, what it entails to be call oneself an ally, empowering youth to participate in politics to aftercare in community work.

We encourage you to read Kétura’s piece titled “Les racistes sont de bonnes personnes” for Le Cahier. You can find the link provided below.
