We invite you to join us for an exploration of Art, Movement, and Music, curated by the Hemispheric Institute’s first Folklorist in Residence, Aissatou Bey-Bara. This conversation and community dance circle reflects on the foundational influences and creative beginnings of African performance arts. It measures the long collective impact of African dance, visual arts, music and performance in a global diaspora – an impact that informs the Afro future. Panelists Aquah Tcherbu Beale, Januwa Moja, Amaniyea Payne, and Obara Wali Rahman King will discuss the power of the drum, of embodied performance, and the visual grandeur of African regalia. The panel will be followed by a movement workshop led by Amaniyea Payne and drummer Obayana Olumide. This program is the culminating event of the series, “We Not New To This, We True To This”, curated by Archivist Camille Lawrence, at the Hemispheric Institute. Camille will moderate the event, which will be documented and preserved in the Hemispheric Institute Digital Video Library (HIDVL).

“Huracán Architectures” is a new exhibition by Puerto Rican photographer Ruben Natal-San Miguel. For almost a decade, Natal-San Miguel has situated his practice at the intersection of the island’s devastating financial crisis and the deterioration and disappearance of its vernacular architecture as a result of neglect, mass migration, and the catastrophic weather events that define climate change in the region.
Join us Thursday, 5/1 @ 5pm for “Huracán Architectures” – A Photography Exhibition by Ruben Natal-San Miguel, Curated by Lisa Paravisini-Gebert

The event is part of “Hurricane Worlds,” a multi-year initiative led by Institute Director Ana Dopico that seeks to gather the epistemologies, world-making, and art-making of people who live and have lived in hurricane worlds.
Join us Thursday, 5/1 @ 10am for “Hurricane Worlds: Extinctions and Futures Symposium”

This year marks 200 years since France imposed an independence ransom on Haiti–which the country spent more than 100 years paying off–that has long grounded the country’s claim to reparations. At the same time, there is increasing recognition globally that colonialism and slavery have shaped the unequal, racist, and unjust impacts of the climate crisis in Haiti, the Caribbean, and around the world. Speakers will address how the unjust impacts of climate change–as outlined in the Global Justice Clinic and The Promise Institute for Human Rights’ recent report, Bay Kou Bliye, Pote Mak Sonje: Climate Injustice in Haiti and the Case for Reparations–may connect to and reinforce demands for reparations for colonialism, slavery, and ongoing racial injustice. They will also examine the possibilities and limitations of international law to advance reparations claims.
Join us today, 3/13 @ 5:30pm for “Movements for Reparations: Racial Justice, Climate Justice, and the Case of Haiti”
