June 2006

Rhythmic Uprising volunteer Judy Durkin gets us up to speed on everything that's happened since the end of April. U.S. Rhythmic Uprising supporters Maneesh Gogia, Catherine Vu, Alisha Laborico, and Julie Turiy visit the project in Bahia. Sylvia Johnson lends a third camera to our Banda Dida concert shoot. Benjamin Watkins, Rogerio Nunes and Greg Swingle finish promotional DVDs for ACANNE and Bejé Erô. Then they hold a screening of it in Bejé Erô's community center. Finally, we take a look at what Ben's been up to back in DC.
