“A multimedia presentation by young Afro-Latino artists from the United States will travel to five countries in the Western Hemisphere during the period from October 10 to November 11, 2005, according to the U.S. Department of State.
The “Viajes Personales” [Personal Voyages] exhibit, sponsored by the State Department’s Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, highlights the works of photographer Ayana Vellissia Jackson and writer Marco Villalobos, who have joined forces to offer vignettes of the Afro-Latino experience in the United States from a variety of perspectives. Based on interviews with Afro-Latinos in metropolitan areas in California, Massachusetts, the District of Columbia and New York, the exhibit presents visual and literary portraits of Afro-descendants of Mexican, Colombian, Cuban, Dominican, Nicaraguan, Panamanian, Peruvian, Puerto Rican and Venezuelan heritage.”
