They said “send her back” but Speaker @SpeakerPelosi didn’t just make arrangements to send me back, she went back with me ✊🏽

So grateful for the honor to return to Mother Africa with the @TheBlackCaucus and commemorate The Year of Return!

Listen and read about Tanya @tagaq in a piece by Deutschlandfunk Kultur (@dlfkultur) 🔊 Presented by CTM Festival, she performed at @berghain last night and we're still buzzing from her guttural groans and deeply spiritual performance. https://t.co/BcRCJqTjcc

Tanya Tagaq didn’t discover throat singing until she was in college, when her mother mailed her tape recordings of traditional songs to ease her homesickness: “I could hear the land. It was incredible for me to be able to taste my home again in my ears.” https://t.co/9trEZt8U3e

[60 Minutes @60Minutes]

We have profiled countless musicians in our 51 years, but we’ve never heard anything like Tanya Tagaq. Tonight, experience her music, a blend of Inuit throat singing, punk rock, heavy metal and electronica that has been described as “transfixing.” https://t.co/C7CmDe5aMA

[Folk on the Rocks @FolkontheRocks]

A profile of FOTR Alum, Tanya Tagaq will be airing tonight on 60 Minutes! Tanya is an Inuk throat singing powerhouse and indigenous activist. So cool! We will definitely be watching!📷 Angela Gzowski

I was just at Hart House for The Valley. Fire alarm. Competent lady was there. Her name is Crystal. I approached her at the end, told her about your post, and to read it later, in privacy, so she could have a good cry. We hugged. Being actual humans is great, eh? Thank YOU! 🧡💛

[When They Awake @whentheyawake]

One of the best moments we witnessed this year’s @hotdocs. Great thread @sexgeekAZ — our read on the whole thing was exactly the same as yours.
