Danielle Almeida is singer • educator • artivist in the anti-racism & LGBTQIA+ movement.

She is invited professor at MAC Barcelona at the PEI (Independent Studies Program).

Following the preparations of our vinyl project with her, Danielle Almeida presents a Lecture Performance and concert Diaspórica.

In this performance the audience will be introduced to a series of songs and rhythms by 20th-century Black women singers from the Latin American musical repertoire. In addition to the musical performance, Danielle will present parts of her research dedicated to the remembering of Black women singers from Peru, Cuba, Uruguay, Mexico and Brazil.

The Lecture Performance focus on the interaction of the artists with the audience, complementing the sensory experience of music with the transfer of knowledge about the works presented.
