Until Everyone Is Free

About Until Everyone Is Free

Less than two years after gaining independence, Kenya began killing its own freedom fighters. The first political assassination happened in 1965. They killed a man who knew what freedom was, and who knew how to get it. This man was Pio Gama Pinto. “Until Everyone Is Free” is a Sheng podcast about Pinto: socialist, political detainee, and martyr. Host Stoneface Bombaa, producer April Zhu, and reporter Felix Omondi tell the story of a forgotten freedom fighter to answer one important question: How did the country of Kenya become free... without the people of Kenya getting free?

   AI Ni ya Who? The Invisible Labour Behind AI

   A lot of the talk about AI focuses on how human AI is. Can it write like me, draw like me, sing like me? What we need to be concerned about, however, is how AI makes us less human. Kenya has become a hub for companies that recruit African workers to do the content moderation and data labeling microwork that AI depends on — and yet workers and their often inhumane conditions are hidden. Commissioned by Project Ether, Until Everyone Is Free produced a special podcast episode highlighting how AI technology is just the latest stage of a long story of capitalism. But, as with all other stages, there is worker resistance too.
