“Negra, negra, negra soy,” a community performance introduced by the Kukily Afrofeminst Arts Collective, was staged at Trinity College February 9, as part of Black History Month. The collective invited community members to participate in the live performance through a collaborative creative process. The process was designed to strengthen connections, generate a greater understanding of each others’ lived experiences, and engage in art making. “Negra, negra, negra soy” translates to “Black, Black, I am a Black woman.”
