Produktinformationen "New Voices: Mountain Hearts, World Dreams"
Deep in the crumpled border ranges of Guangxi and Guizhou, a group of Miao women once knew only their native tongue. Cut off from schooling and the wider world, they seemed destined to live and die inside the folds of the hills. Then, a night school opened in their village. Through newly written Miao songs and fresh Miao-language renderings of classical Chinese poetry, the women mastered Mandarin, learned to keep diaries, and memorized more than forty ancient poems. With words came confidence: They now craft verse about their own lives, champion Miao culture, and lead social change within the village-- voices powerful enough to claim a second life. Alongside them, resident cadres put down roots, learning the Miao language, shortening the distance between officials and villagers, and striking a lusheng melody of shared hope together. New Voices: Mountain Hearts, World Dreams is an intimate portrait of resilience, cultural pride, and the quiet revolution that begins when education finds its way to the very last mile.
