The purpose of this project is to connect the experiences of young Afro-Argentines with African-American and other minority groups in the United States and towards the construction of a diverse and inclusive understanding of national, cultural, social and political identities, while also understanding the different challenges people of African descent face in different places. Likewise, it is also the objective of the project to create an awareness of the historical and cultural contribution of these marginalized groups to their societies, and of the necessity of locating them as social, political and cultural active subjects not only throughout the history but also at the present time.
