Afro-indigenous Latin Colective Work
The Afro-indigenous Latin Collective is a working group made up of young people in Mexico interested in African culture and Indo-American cultural and musical expressions. As a working group we have taken on the task of documenting these cultural expressions in audio and video media in order to disseminate through social networks.
Our work has focused on producing documentaries and music videos taken directly in the communities and in the recording studio.
With the material produced organize and produce live shows, music festivals and concerts, always with the idea degrade the greatest benefit for musicians through fair trade.
