This week, Gyles and Aphra are heading to Nauru, the smallest country in the Commonwealth, to explore its culture, history, and poetry. They’re joined by the multi-talented Gem Dowiyogo, an artist, singer, and passionate advocate for Nauruan youth and heritage. Gem shares her journey of reconnecting with her roots and keeping Nauru’s stories alive through art and song. This episode features Soon Enough by Maura Eidabugi Thoma, a powerful poem about the impact of phosphate mining on the country, as well as a small glimpse of a beautiful Nauruan love song - Eko Iyon by singer-songwriter Ditrone Tom.
