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.

November 30, 2022: Ep. 18: Allos Abis, Poet & Settlement Counselor

For today’s broadcasting, Radyo Kapwa hosts are joined by Allos Abis, a poet, settlement counselor based in tkaronto colonially known as Toronto. We had a beautiful conservation talking about being trans and serving our still conservative Filipino/a/x community when it comes to immigration.
