Le Wi Lan Krio: Episode 1

Our friends at WeOwnTv have developed this awesome series of lessons, "Le Wi Lan Krio", to teach Sierra Leonean Krio - the common language spoken in every day life of Sierra Leone. Now you too can chat with Sierra Leone artists such as Bajah + the Dry Eye Crew, the Sierra Leone Refugee Allstars, and Janka Nabay.


In this episode: greetings, sit down, stand up, and a parable about how to cope with having lots of children.
