Black History Month is about highlighting the many contributions the community has made, creating a greater awareness of Black identity and celebrating Black culture. As a Latinx community, we have often failed to acknowledge the Black community as being a part of Latinx identity, and yet, the Afro-Latinx influence on the culture is undeniable—including with music. In this episode, music historian and contributor Katelina ‘Gata’ Eccleston takes us on a journey following Afro beats in music. And not only can we hear, but we can also see the impact of the Black community. With the help of contributor Nydia Simone, we explore how content creators and storytellers are putting representation at the forefront and highlighting the community’s stories. From the exploration of Black storytellers using the digital space to take control of their own voices and narratives, to civic engagement and education leaders teaching the evolution of race relations in this country to promote inclusivity, with the help of this episode’s co-host, Radar's Lu Louis, we celebrate the many accomplishments of the Black community, while also taking a critical look at where we are today.
