- Across borders, artists are collaborating to tell a different story about slavery and the fight for freedom woven through communities unaware of the shared history.
"Right now, today, there is a town called Nacimiento de los Negros, that there are 550 direct descendants of American slaves that formed this community," said Jorge Baldor with the Latino Arts Project."And so, their traditions are formed and passed down through hymns." He escaped, led a slave revolt, and built one of the first freed slave communities in the Americas. His story, until recently, went untold. And some prefer the silence.
