About the Afróntalo exhibit:

One in four Latin Americans has African ancestry. And yet, there is a general deficit of knowledge regarding the presence and prevalence of blackness throughout the Americas. This is more than a simple matter of obscurity. It is a problem of erasure, invisibility and dislocation. Afróntalo introduces you to four communities in Mexico and twenty-one Californians, all in their own words, to explore the depth and breadth of Afrolatiné histories, cultures and identities. This exhibit is part of the Afrolatine California project.

Exhibit Runs September 21, 2023 – June 19, 2024

Free and open to the public
