Virtual Event
Las Cafeteras
The Sounds of Resistance:
From Storytelling to Movement Building

6:00 pm Tuesday, September 20, 2022

The artists of Las Cafeteras are part of a legacy of musicians who have written themselves into the soundtrack of social change in the United States, believing they are storytellers before they are musicians. In this virtual interactive dialogue, the musicians will focus on breaking down social and cultural influences on identity, perceptions of privilege and power, and reclaiming voices.

Participants will be given tools and poetry prompts to begin to create their own personal narrative. Together, the artists and participants will engage in the power of storytelling to share his-story, her-story, your-story, our-story.
