EP19. Music | Can it humanizing others in Conflict? w/ Mina Girgis 🇪🇬🇺🇸

  • Summary

  • How do we challenge our stereotypes about other cultures and humanize others beyond what we assume?

    My guest today, Mina Girgis, believes that learning about music and listening to other people’s music is the path forward. What happens when we bring curiosity to the music we listen to?

    Mina is a musical anthropologist and current Director of Education, Campus and Community Engagement at UC Berkley CalPerformances. Mina is also the founder of The Nile Project, where he used the power of human connection via shared musical culture to tackle one of Africa’s most challenging sustainability conflicts: The River Nile. Whether yo are into classical music, to gypsy music, or electronic and hiphop, we’ll cover how any music tells a story that can help us understand life and humans on a more fundamental level.

    Sample performance from the Nile project:
