Were You Listening? Track 1: Raza

We take an anti-racist approach to center the contribution of Black people and culture across Latin America and its diaspora through dance and music. Our work aims to:- educate consumers of Afro-Latin culture on its Black roots- highlight the work of Black artists, dancers, and scholars across the Americas- develop a practice of anti-racism in the Afro-Latin dance scene🇵🇷 🇨🇴
