¿Conoces los tours que te muestran rincones de Madrid vinculados a personas negras? Si la respuesta es no, has elegido el contenido adecuado para abandonar ese grupo. Porque en este capítulo de No hay negros en el Tíbet, se somete a la locura propia del programa, el actor, guía turístico y creador de Afroibérica Tours, Kwame Ono, nacido en la ciudad de Libreville (Gabón) pero con Guinea ecuatorial en las venas, residente en España desde que tenía 7 años.
Kwame es actor gracias a Penélope Cruz, su musa inspiradora, y sus primeros pasos los dio en Inglaterra. Pero además de sus incursiones en el mundo de la interpretación, nos cuenta cómo sus tours difunden la desconocida (para la mayoría) historia de las personas negras en Madrid y otras ciudades de España y Portugal.
Historias que llevan a la reflexión sobre los conocimientos e intereses de los anfitriones del Tíbet, que en ningún caso estará exenta de puyazos, chistes (malos), humor (a veces bueno), comentarios al límite de la censura, muchas risas y, por supuesto, locura.

41:30 ¿Quién llegó antes, Colón a América o personas negras a España?
47:30 La mayoría de los turistas en sus tours buscan sus raíces, su historia
49:25 Sobre el relato de una España menos esclavista que otros países
53:50 ¿Hubo un Cid negro?
The making of Makabe-ishidoro originated about 500 years ago.
Various stonework has been crafted since olden times, as good quality granite is abundant in this region.
Ishidoro is a stone lantern made of granite,
and they are placed in shrine or temple precincts prized for its exquisite carving
and solemnity, providing rustic flavor to Japanese gardens.

After preparing a suitable space for a kiln build, the next step is to build the kiln. Today I start stacking refractory bricks to build a small wood-fired pottery kiln that will hopefully reach 1300 degrees celsius, or cone 10.
The design uses Australian potter Steve Harrison's "Small Portable Woodfired Kiln" as a close reference for proportions. https://tonightmyfingerssmellofgarlic.com/2024/05/15/small-portable-woodfired-kilns/
I use a combination of dense firebrick, soft firebrick (IFB), and refractory castable cement. In the upcoming video, I'll be building the roof (a Nils Lou Minnesota flattop design) and welding a fire grate out of old rebar.

Tinker and Think ethos: Combining the manual and cerebral. We cannot separate the mental and the physical, nor treat any endeavor as solely mental or solely physical. But this is precisely how we have come to talk about our world—blue collar vs. white collar, intellectual vs. athlete, book worm vs. adventurer. But this is a totally false dichotomy. This channel promotes an approach that combines manual labor (pottery, carpentry, welding, bricklaying, concrete) with a smart, purposeful attitude (study, reading, science, math, poetry, and meditation). Our minds work best when they engage with our bodies. Our bodies perform best when connected to conscious mental action. Through intelligent manual work, we discover enjoyment, fulfillment, and human flourishing.

How far can we get human genetic information? What's the oldest ancient DNA? It's tricky because DNA degrades over time. However, fortunately proteins can bind to minerals in our teeth and provide a wealth of information. This is the science of paleo-proteomics. Join me as I investigate how proteins can store genetic information, what can that tell us about human evolution and who was paranthropus robustus?

Today, I'm starting a new project. building a wood-fired pottery kiln.
When done right, this can produce beautiful pots in a sustainable way. The problem is, I've never built a wood kiln. I have a lot to learn. Come along with me while I learn and experiment with kiln building, wood-firing pottery, pouring concrete, welding, and more.
Reading the classics doesn't have to be hard. In this week's video, I'll put on my English major hat and tackle a key reframe that'll help you read the classics with ease.

The milky way galactic core is rising into the early morning sky at present, so I decided to go in search of trees to complement the foreground part of my compositions. I wanted to shoot at longer focal lengths during this night so I packed the 50mm & 85mm lenses.
It's a lot harder to work out the compositions at these focal lengths but the extra details really make it worth the effort.

Llega el momento de abrirse, pero lo justo y necesario. Porque en este capítulo sin invitades, al estilo ya conocido como "TODO SOBRE NOSOTRES", Frank T, Asaari Bibang y Lamine Thior desvelan algunos de sus secretos dignos de esta clase de capítulos. Eso sí, sin abandonar las puyas, locura y risas habituales, que aparecen entre reflexiones que van desde la autoconstrucción de masculinidades y el machismo, hasta las separaciones, lo que pasa cuando los problemas del primer mundo le llegan a Asaari, o la verdad.
Eso sí, no te pierdas el inicio del episodio y la versión con matices venecianos de Curro, la mascota de la Expo92 de Sevilla, que presenta Lamine. Además, conocerás el lugar exacto en el que nació este pódcast, las sensaciones que ha tenido Frank al descubrir (a su edad) la expresión "PEC", y os quedaréis boquiabiertos cuando Lamine explica su teoría que convierte a Henry Cavill en la fantasía sexu@l de los hombres heterosexu@les.
00:00 Bienvenides al Tíbet
03:35 Los problemas del primer mundo alcanzan a Asaari
08:08 Lamine no lava los platos, los compra
12:35 ¿Comer carne es poco ecológico?
