It is a virtual space that was born within the framework of the covid-19 pandemic, in response to national racial tensions in May 2020. The aim was to raise awareness about anti-blackness feelings and provide a space of support and healing for members of our community. Our firm intention is to focus the voices of Afrodescendant and Afro-Indigenous people, and highlight community dialogue and art as a way to reinvent and create space to connect and strengthen the identities that oppressive systems try to erase.
