episode description
In this episode of Outpost, we travel to Port-au-Prince, Haiti and Easter Island, Chile to meet the people making a difference through music – finding hope in destruction, and exploring the possibilities of culture for social rescue. Jon Batiste, New Orleans musican and band leader of the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, meets the young Haitians finding their way as musicians in the wake of Haiti's devastating 2010 earthquake, despite having no music industry to speak of. Meanwhile, in Easter Island, Kim Brooks meets the people who've started a music school and NGO to address problems on the island ranging from a lack of education to tears in the social fabric to environmental concerns.
