Mission Statement
The afrolatin@ forum works to build and strengthen research and activist networks among Latin@s of African descent. Our focus is on Black Latin@s in the United States and their relationships with other communities of color. This emphasis is guided by a transnational perspective that recognizes the centrality of race in understanding today's global reality and the struggle for social justice.
Description
The Afro-Latin@ Forum is pleased to host "Afro-Latin@s Now! Strategies for Visibility and Action," a three-day international conference that will gather scholars, community leaders and artists to advance a dialogue on issues of importance to Black Latin@s in the United States as well as foster positive relations between Latin@s, African Americans and other peoples of color.
