We are now M\u00c1S podcast.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have designed for you, a space where the voices of the Afro and indigenous diaspora resonate louder, echo in your identity. A place where what we started in “MAS Conversations” uses the power of orality, music and soundscapes, to extend our reflections against structural racism, celebrate our identity and above all, continue in this exercise of community building.
\nSo connect with these genuine dialogues that will be crossed by the power of our ancestralities.

In this season, the \u2018comadres\u2019 and allies who sustain this initiative pay tribute and announce the beginning of the new series <\/span>\u201cFronteras en Tr\u00e1nsito\u201d<\/b> (Borders in Transit),a journey through stories of migration, resistance, and pride. Through the voices of <\/span>Ana Mar\u00eda Belique<\/b>, <\/span>Carla Garc\u00eda<\/b> and <\/span>Johan Mijail<\/b>, we invite you to think of borders not only as geographics lines, but also as bodies, silences and shared fights. <\/span><\/h5>\n

From the Dominican Republic and Honduras, the voices of Ana Maria Belique, Johan Mijail, and Carla Garcia guide us through territories where borders not only divide maps but also bodies, memories, and rights. Through
<\/span>\u2018chachareo\u2019 and \u2018la rueda\u2019, these conversations reveal how the limits imposed by racism, xenophobia, and exclusionary policies are confronted with spirituality, community, and living words. Among testimonies, prayers, and Garifuna songs, a collective question emerges: how do we inhabit borders while preserving our roots?<\/h5>\n

In this episode we continue weaving the memory of a theme that pain us but also strengthen us, such as it is the theme of borders; borders that are not only on maps but also in the bodies, in the laws, looks and silences. This is an episode in which we enter a space of reflection that we call \u2018la olla\u2019, the pot, where the collective fire boils proposals and dreams and where each contribution adds flavor, strength and life.
We open the lid of that pot to acknowledge that in the face of so many borders and dispossessions, we have also found ways to cook up collective solutions. <\/h5>\n

In this episode, the boundaries we carry within us blur and transform through the voices of those who inhabit the Maroon resistance and spirituality. We venture into discovering how prejudices, beliefs, and internal boundaries shape identities and limit our encounter with the other. With the Garifuna drum, Dominican Santer\u00eda, and the resolute voice of resistance, this episode invites us to dismantle these barriers and rediscover ourselves in spiritual unity as paths to justice and collective healing.

In this episode, love also migrates.
We close the second conversation of the season by asking ourselves what happens when borders cross bodies, affections, and desire, and how to inhabit them again from a place of shared humanity.
We talk about the Black diaspora, about Haiti and its radical revolution of love, about bodies in transit that become territory, archive, and living memory. About migration not as a choice, but as a consequence. About Blackness, spirituality, and community as paths to rehumanizing ourselves.
\nThis episode is an invitation to think of love as political action, to disobey the borders we were taught, and to return to the collective weave as a form of resistance.
To love the transit.
To love without a map.
To love without permission. <\/h5>\n

Our special guests, Carla Garc\u00eda, Ana Mar\u00eda Belique and Johan Mihail, join us again with <\/span>\u201cBetween Northern Borders and Bodies in Transit”,<\/span> a conversation that reveals the traps of the Global North and its promises that encourage migration, only to then classify who belongs and who does not. The three of them offer solutions in our reparations pot, which are rooted in our ancestral traditions and community practices. <\/span><\/h5>\n

In this episode, we lift the lid on the pot of reparations to acknowledge that, faced with so many borders and dispossession, we have also created ways to cook up collective solutions. It is an invitation to reclaim our right to a dignified life and to cultivate a loving and compassionate perspective: to repair, not to remain silent; to restore dignity, security, and protection. The proposal is to strengthen spaces of self-preservation and community resistance, where our lives are not defined or persecuted by racism, but affirmed in all their humanity. <\/h5>\n

This episode brings together the \u2018comadres\u2019 of M\u00c1S Conversations for M\u00c1S Pride in an intimate \u2018chachareo\u2019 that offers, from within, from their own experiences and reflections, a vision of the impact of the Global North migration policies and internal displacements on our bodies, territories, and ways of being. Ana Teresa Puente guides the conversation where we hear Milvia Pacheco Salvatierra, Meyby Ugueto-Ponce, Delia Pinto-Santini, and Ana Gabriela Cano share their migration and displacements experiences, which, even though they leave wounds, also leave us with the strength and flourishing of resistance and collective encounter that allow us to continue with dignity. <\/h5>\n

Facilitated by Ana Teresa Puente, and featuring the voices of Ana Gabriela Cano, Rayza De La Hoz, Evelyn Laurent Perrault, Milvia Pacheco Salvatierra, and Meyby Ugueto-Ponce, we hear about the role of our ancestral and spiritual knowledge as a support on our journey. Their reflections remind us that the spirituality of our Abya Yala is profound and diverse; it is a fractal that unfolds in migration and crisis; it is food, it is necklace, it is the street, it is protection, it is music, dance, and care\u2014all cooked up to sustain and heal us. <\/h5>\n

Sending a warm welcome to everyone connecting to the first episode of M\u00c1S Podcast para M\u00c1S orgullo!

Poetry and reflective writing are the protagonists of this episode where we bring the different creative reflections of activists, managers, artists, who are part of M\u00c1S, as responses to achieve the rescue and safeguarding of Afro Diasporic cultural manifestations, as a result of the many forms of cultural appropriations that have been codified and naturalized in spaces such as artistic scenarios.<\/h5>\n

this chapter we want to discuss how we are affected by the arbitrary way in which society assigns value to the art-arts relationship. We want to highlight the racialization of the arts as a mechanism of exclusion and its logic of operation in relation to cultural diversity and how it also affects our identities and the value we give ourselves as people. <\/h5>\n

We explore the fine line between inspiration and cultural appropriation in the world of Afro aesthetics. Where does admiration for a culture end and exploitation of its heritage begin? Appreciation or appropriation? Alignment between appropriation and extractivism? How can we enjoy and celebrate cultural diversity without falling into appropriation?<\/h5>\n

In this episode we will talk about how art and spirituality are intertwined elements within Afro manifestations, and the impact that migration has on these artistic processes.

In this episode of “M\u00c1S PODCAST FOR MORE PRIDE,” we commemorate International Transgender Day of Visibility by reflecting on what it means to be visible in a world that constantly seeks to render us invisible. Drawing on the experiences of trans and racialized people, we discuss how academia and the arts have been spaces for the extraction of knowledge without recognition. <\/h5>\n
We talk about how writing, exaggeration, and scandal are not simple expressions, but political forms of resistance that challenge the system. We ask ourselves: Why do we make people uncomfortable? How do we take ownership of our spaces? <\/h5>\n

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 on 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. <\/span><\/p>\n

Series 8- 2025″ color=”violet” style=”dashed” css=””][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=””]In this eighth series we will discuss the complex issue of migration, with an intersectional, afro-centered, and trans-centered gaze. We will weave and make visible how international and migratory policies created by colonial systems, and contemporarily, by the global north, have the clear objective of blocking access and manipulating the subjectivities at convenience, of Afro-diasporic peoples and dissident communities of the global south who are in voluntary or forced mobility, through an anti-black racism that comes from a colonial heritage, and that at the same time perpetuates systems of oppression against black and dissident communities. <\/span><\/p>\n

We will complement our view of migration by recognizing the diversity of bodies, genders, territories, nations and positions in order to account for the structural violence that affects Afro-diasporic peoples who are in mobility. To this end, we will focus on concepts such as migration, mobility, nationalism, statelessness, racism, anti-black racism, anti-Haitian racism, deterritorialization, among others. From the specific experiences of Central America, Haiti and the southern border of the Spanish territory, we will be able to transversalize these visions to account for how capital and violence work through the perverse device of migration. <\/span><\/p>\n

I was born on June 11, 1999 in the city of Ibarra, I am a weird boy, very funny, someone enjoys laughing most of the time. Today I am pursuing the dream of being an artist, I use the dry technique a lot using sepia, pastels and charcoal and I love representing my Afro-Ecuadorian culture, but portraying women. I feel good doing it, it fulfills me and I want blackness to be recognized beyond the ordinary. Sometimes, well over time I liked to mix my art with comedy and no, not as a joke, but to make it known that this is my personality, that person is me.<\/span><\/p>\n
