Folk Musician on a Mission

December 16, 2019 | Christina Ayele Djossa | BBC

Next stop, we’re in Lijiang, a small farming village on the shores of Lugu Lake in southwest China, where popular folk musician Guro-duoji is on a mission. He’s part of a minority group – the Moso – who are fighting for their language, Naru, and their culture, surrounded as they are by Han Chinese language and culture.
