Program Description
This 60 minute Spanish/Bilingual literary presentation explores the concepts of afrolatinidad, cultural identity, immigration, and family traditions through poetry and spoken word. Students will be immersed in the Spanish language and Hispanic culture through readings of excerpts from the International Latino Book Award-winning titles “Huellas de una memoria perdida”, the bilingual illustrated poem “Traces” on Afrolatinidad, and “De cuento en cuento,” original works authored by the presenter. Showcasing an Afro-Caribbean perspective, this program highlights the Afrolatina experience in the U.S. while inviting students to explore their own backgrounds. It celebrates the pride of being bicultural and bilingual, it celebrates our African ancestry, promotes critical thinking, creativity, character building, and cultural identity. The program is inclusive, empowering, and culturally responsive. This program is ideal for school clubs, after-school activities, ENL, ELL, Spanish classes, English classes, and electives that address topics such as Social Justice, DEI, Immigration, and cultural identity. As a culminating exercise, students will be guided to create their own literary pieces inspired by the work presented. This portion of the program is time pending. Copies of the poetry book “Huellas de una memoria perdida” and illustrated poem “Traces” (with historical notes and guided questions) are available at a discounted rate upon booking. * Schools may request a sample copy ahead of time.
