Vaivén. The word Vaivén (vah.ee.ven) is found in the creole vocabulary of Puerto Rico, meaning “to go back and forth,” is a dialogue of the curious characteristics of the creole identity of Puerto Ricans between the artists Franco Frontera and Hernán Ayala, curated by Antonio Delvalle-Lago. The show is based on using the Puerto Rican identity and traditions as a medium to manifest and inform the actual humanitarian crisis that the Island is facing and also to create awareness of the diaspora community and progressive thinkers of this stalemate.

_______________________________________________ Lolita Lebrón, 1919-2010 A leader in the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party, New York Chapter, Lebrón led a small brigade on an attack of the U.S. Congress on March 1, 1954 to bring global attention to Puerto Rico’s colonial status. For this act she was incarcerated until 1979. She later became a voice for human rights and non-violent protest against the U.S. Navy’s presence on the island of Vieques. #larespuestamedia #larespuesta #boricua #lolitalebron #activist #boricuapride #icon #boricuascape #boricuadiaspora #woman #boricuawomen #puertorican #revolutionary

is dedicated to both resurrecting lost history and highlighting marginalized communities within our “gran familia puertorriqueñx“. Afrodescendientes boricuas is one such community, who are, at best – forgotten or ignored – and at worst – exoticized, feared, or even hated. So, with pride and determination, we humbly compiled a list of 10 “Black Boricuas” we think have impacted our history and identities. ------------------------------------------------ Of course, there are many, many more. You can find some Afro-Boricuas in our list “20 Puerto Rican Women Everyone Should Know” (we did not reproduce them here so as to give room to name others). For the sake of space and capacity, we can only give you a taste – but let’s start a dialogue. Please, share with us the names of other Afro-Puerto Ricans you may know! ¡Qué Viva Puerto Rico Negrx! ------------------------------------------------ Artwork Info: Part of “Caja de Memoria Constancia” art installation by Adrián "Viajero" Román (@viajero). ------------------------------------------------ #larespuestamedia #AfroBoricua #Diaspora #negro #larespuesta #Boricuascape #BoricuaDiaspora #PuertoRicanHistory #Artwork #Viajero #Black #Cultura #History #Negro #Culture #aesthetic #Installation #Identity #VivaPuertoRico #Isla #art #blackboricuas #blackhistorymonth #boricuapride #afrolatinx #latinx #identity #PuertoRicanHistory
