WHFR Journal Focuses on Food, Energy, and How They're Connected -- Tune in Tomorrow, June 28 at 1pm
Globally, one-third of food produced every year is wasted. That’s enough to feed about 2 billion people – twice the number of people who are undernourished. The global food system also accounts for a whopping one-third of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. When food is wasted, it’s also a waste of land, water and energy. Join us for the WHFR Journal show on Friday, June 28 at 1pm as we feature a special PRX airing from Climate One that discusses how to fix the broken system from some of the people on the ground recovering food before it goes to waste.
WHFR PRESENTS: The Lion Of Zimbabwe: Thomas Mapfumo

Born on July 3, 1945 in a town just southeast from the capital Zimbabwe, Harare, he was raised in rural surroundings until the age of 10. He later got exposed to the traditional music of the Shona that featured mbira and ngoma drums.
His first band the was ZUTU BROTHERS. He quickly rebelled against the government under the rule of Robert Mugabe and did songs in protest. The new style was called CHIMURENA and is music was banned from airplay.
He was thrown into prison without cause in 1979 and demonstrations were done in protest and after 3 months he was released. He left to the United States to live in exile in Oregon. After the government was overthrown in 2017, he retuned to his homeland to perform and is loved worldwide.
