[Part 2. To your call Mali] On September 22, 2020, Mali will be sixty years old.
Of this long history, much less peaceful than the course of the Niger river which crosses the country, the national radio will have been the witness and the actor.
Linking people and the capital to distant villages, teaching them by proxy to know each other, the radio was both a tool for development and national cohesion.
Publicity
With Radio Mali agents of yesterday and today, but also their listeners, listen to the story of the early years of this country, which ended with a military coup.
The first in a long series ... Testimonies, report in Bamako, archives of Malian radio and music respond to each other and accompany us on a journey through time, which brings history and everyday life into dialogue, the great political figures and ordinary citizens.
