This week the CBC Radio One program Ideas is rebroadcasting
a four part series Heart of Sky and Heart of Earth, about the Mayan
people -- who they are, their culture, their beliefs, and the legacy
of the civil war.
As of tonight the first three parts are available at
https://tinyurl.com/4z8btu42
The first episode in this series explores the spirit world of
the ancient Mayan people and the struggle today to make
Mayan ancient beliefs relevant in a modern society.
The second episode of this series looks into the issue of
land and land reform — and the historical importance of
land to the Mayan people.
The third episode in this series explores the place of
Mayan women in present-day Guatemala, their role in
the making of the country, and the importance of the
art of weaving in keeping an ancient culture alive.
(I added the textiles newsgroup because of this episode.)
The fourth episode will be added at the same link on
the evening on which it is broadcast, which I think
will be tomorrow evening, but it could be a week
from tonight.

How are the inheritors of all this to make change and
build something better?
