Voices of the Chamoru Diaspora - Virtual Zine Launch

In 2022, Fanachu put out a call for Chamorus living outside of the Marianas to share their reflections and experiences in the diaspora. Dozens of artists, writers, musicians and performers responded and in 2023 we released an online zine titled "Voices of the Chamoru Diaspora" edited by Amara Rose San Agustin. For this episode of Fanachu, four of the 40 who were included in the zine joined for a virtual launch episode to discuss both their experiences as diasporic Chamorus and their particular submissions. 

Appearing as guests on this episode were Isa Gagarin, Ed Sablan, Aren Kerr and Connie Santos. You can download a copy of the zine at this link. 

This episode first premiered on March 22, 2023 and was hosted by Amara Rose San Agustin

The audio for this episode is produced by Tåsi Chargualaf and includes the song "Kantan Chamorro" by Gus and Doll.
