Black Latinidad in the US

The father of the Pan-African movement, W.E.B. DuBois, discussed the idea of double consciousness, and Black Latinindad in the US falls on the shoulders of what Dr. DuBois was speaking of. In fact, being a Black Latino in the US is a triple identity. Managing what it means to be Black, Latin and an American can be extremely complex. This workshop discusses maintaining our pride in all  3 while not feeling like an outsider in any of those realms.
