From the UNCEDED organizers:
“Next Tuesday, April 11, at The Alaskan, artists of color recognize the origins and contributions of music from our Black and brown ancestors on the lands known as Turtle Island, Abya Yala (America), Cemanahuac, Zipacna, Alkebulan (Africa), Aotearoa and beyond. And most importantly, to create a safe space for artists, musicians, and supporters of color to create and collaborate and enjoy this creative community. All people are welcome to celebrate these artists.”
