May 19, 2022--Host Johanna Wildoak features two women who each tell compelling stories, one with words and one with images. She talks with local illustrator and photographer Leona Walden about the recently reissued Country Women, A Handbook for the New Farmer. A “back to the land” classic, this homesteading handbook chronicles the aspirations of tireless women seeking a new life on small farms around America, including in Mendocino County. Johanna also talks with award-winning journalist Jori Lewis in Dakar, Senegal. Her book Slaves for Peanuts, tells the story of an African minister, born to would-be slaves, who walked a tightrope between Western colonization and African self-determination and what role the peanut played.
