Echoes of Southern African liberation struggles is a podcast that explores sounds, interviews, music, and even noises recorded during the Southern African independence era in Swiss journalism archives. Over five episodes, journalists, artists, and researchers present mixtapes that reconsider archival recordings and reflect on their meanings in the present moment.


The invited collaborator for this episode is Niren Tolsi, a South African journalist, writer, and curator living in Cape Town. The title of his mixtape is “On the shoulders of a wire coat hanger”.
