Recordist's notes

I had just come to Zambia for a couple of days, and at the morning of the interview recording, was about to cross the border back to Binga Zimbabwe. I had brought along as a little gift for Esnart, one of the ilala bags by Zubo women; and this is one of the subjects discussed here in conversation. We are comparing the bag produced by Zubo with some other ilala bags, we happen to have at hand. The interview is thus in parts particularly addressed to the Zubo women, as Esnart’s feedback, knowledge sharing and solidarity message to the women in the Zambezi valley. the entire conversation with Esnart Mweemba is archived here: https://archive.org/details/voices_from_choma_202005
