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 13, 2024: Ep. 120: Pia Marie Ladores aka Pia Joy Love, Multi-Disciplinary Artist

Pia is a joyful child at heart. Born and raised in Montreal, she pursued graphic design as her occupation but Pia was always an artist. Her recent work in illustration and comics can be seen online, but behind the scenes, Pia is painting, working on a graphic novel, writing/composing music and organizing her monthly Sip n’ Scrbl events where she and her friends draw at her pop-up cafe/art studio. Her art has been described as wholesome, vulnerable and a “slice of life,” as she centers her work around the theme of faith, family and the feeling of joy.
