Yours truly, Mala, will be co-facilitating a workshop with two inspirational mujeres, T.K. of the New Mythos Project and Rachel Caballero, a Community Caregiver de Tejas on self-care and healing as an act of resistance against colonialism at the CLPP Conference April 8-10th in Amherst.

One of the things I will be sharing is how redefining media and using media to speak truth can be a healing and developmental process for M/Others, Mamis and Community Caregivers of Color.

I hope that those who can come out. I have never been to this conference so I don’t know how the space is like and that always makes me nervous and defensive. I will be blogging & tweeting as the network there makes possible.

bomba.jpgThis weekend in New York City women will have the chance to learn the Afro-Puerto Rican dance and music style known as Bomba. Nyree Feliciano of Bomba Boricua is offering a Bomba workshop for women only tomorrow October 8th and Sunday October 10th at the Clemente Soto Velez Cultural Center, 107 Suffolk Street, Room 203, in Manhattan.

Bomba is not just a music and dance of celebration; it was used as a language in and of itself, as a way for slaves to communicate and plan rebellions.

Bomba has its roots on the coasts of Puerto Rico where West African slaves and their descendents worked the sugar cane fields. Bomba is not just a music and dance of celebration; it was used as a language in and of itself, as a way for slaves to communicate and plan rebellions.

The workshop is limited to 12 participants so please call (212) 533-6466 to reserve space. The cost is $60 for both classes.
