Radio Awakened May 19, 2021 Interview with Amos Rodriguez of Alone, Season 7 by Radio Boise published on 2021-05-19T20:25:13Z Music is Lucky 13 by Jeff Coffin Mu'tet: https://www.discogs.com/Jeff-Coffin-Mutet-Into-The-Air/release/7917435 About the Guest: Hiking and hunting the hills and volcanoes of Central America in the 80’s and 90’s gave Amós Rodriguez a foundation for his primitive skills life’s practice. Growing up in the context of the U.S. financed civil war in El Salvador increased his urban and wilderness survival and awareness skills; both of which are essential for striving in our modern society. During the post-war period, Amós assisted rural communities devastated by the violence. This experience increased his humanism, his self identification as a native of Central America and highlighted the need to be an advocate for strong sustainable communities.
