"We deserve to inhabit our afromexican identity as childhoods without shame and without prejudice"
During the month of June, we held the artistic workshop 'Negritude: recording stories about our identity' in the community of El Campamento, Cerro Hermoso, Villa de Tututepec, located in the coastal region of the state of Oaxaca, Mexico. It was a space aimed at afromexican children with the goal of promoting the rights of afromexican peoples, their culture, and community life from an intercultural and anti-racist perspective.
During this workshop, we reflected on what it means to be an afromexican child, and they expressed their history and life in the community through printmaking.
Thanks to your support, we continue to generate reflections with the children about our black, afromexican, and/or afro-descendant identity.
