Hosted by the NYU Latinx Alumni Network, join this panel conversation on Afro-Latinindad and an exclusive sizzle reel preview screening of I’m Not My Hair, a documentary by Cynthia Bastidas chronicling the natural hair journey of an Afro-Latina woman, Cristina Garcia de Leon, and the various ways anti-Blackness manifests itself in the everyday life of Afro-descendant women.
The short screening and discussion will be the starting point for a panel discussion with Afro-Latina women professionals, scholars and artists. They will be discussing their work and personal experiences with the topic and their own relationship with their identities. The event will conclude with a reception. This event is co-sponsored by The Latinx Project.
