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.

August 16, 2023: Ep. 55: Hari Alluri, Poet, Artist & Educator

For today’s broadcasting, Radyo Kapwa hosts are joined by Hari Alluri, writer, poet, artist, educator whom you would literally lose sight of because they had a thought and wanted to write it down. Hari shared their journey of writing for healing in a form of deep reconnection of our selves' before and after. This can also address the constant feeling of displacement and existential crisis especially someone from the diaspora of equally diverse cultures of the Philippines and India.

We highly encourage you to support Hari. Please visit their website https://harialluri.com/
