The 60th episode of the podcast «Stories of Resistance» takes listeners to the land of the Condor, near the base of the highest mountain in the Western hemisphere. This is where an ancient Incan community once thrived, hunting, farming, and raising families against the backdrop of the harsh, cold landscape. Today, this community is part of present-day Argentina, and while the people are long gone, the remnants of their homes and their spirits persist.
This episode is part of a series co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange, two platforms dedicated to independent investigative journalism and human rights advocacy. The series aims to inspire listeners with stories of resistance, especially in challenging times. The episode was written and produced by Michael Fox, who also hosts the show.

The episode’s transcript tells the story of the Incan community in vivid detail, painting a picture of a thriving civilization that has withstood the test of time. Despite the passing of centuries and the arrival of modernity, the spirit of the community remains, etched into the stones and dirt of their former homes. The ruins stand as a testament to their resilience, a silent observer to the changing seasons and the passage of time.
