In this episode, we unpack the very recent (and still ongoing) Kendeng cement protest (whose female protestors were dubbed the 'Kartini Kendeng' by the media) that's happening in Jakarta at the moment. We discuss the intricate details of the protest, including how the feet-cement protest is done (encasing one's feet inside a block of pure cement for days on end) and what these brave farmers are fighting for. In discussing this topic, we also found out about the Samin community &amp; movement — an environmentally conscious, anti-colonialist, and anti-capitalist movement started during Dutch colonial rule but continues to find resonance in today's modern age. Finally, we reflect on how important it is that we, as citizens of this beautiful and diverse land called Indonesia, do not forget our responsibilities to the earth and the environment.
