May 22: Yaya at AfroLatin@ Forum Benefit
Please join myself and the rest of the Yaya crew, 7 PM, at the Nuyorican Poets Cafe in support of the AfroLatin@ Forum. Also performing will be the music groups Melao and San Juan Hill, as well as DJ Laylo and poets Mariposa, Mellesol and Lois Griffith.
"The afrolatin@ forum works to build and strengthen research and
activist networks among Latin@s of African descent in the United
States. Our focus is on Black Latin@s in the United Sates and their
relationships with other communities of color. This emphasis is
guided by a transnational perspective that recognizes the centrality
of race in understanding today's global reality and the struggle
for social justice."

Why the "@" in latin@, is it to keep the word from getting hits when people are looking for ethnic pr0n, or is there another reason?
Well written article.
