S1E5 – Art as a tool for liberation | Raphael Chikakwa

How can creativity and art contribute to the history of a Country and shape local communities? Why Chimurenga as "revolution of the mind" lays the foundation for Zimbabwe's new history?
Raphael Chikakwa, a Zimbabwean artist and activist, Executive Director of the National Gallery of Zimbabwe, guides us through the history of his Country - economic struggles, political instability, and regional violence since the 1960s – through the lenses of creativity and activism. He quotes “every revolution starts from the revolution of the mind” and art can be a form of revolution.
