SUMMARY:Caudal: Puerto Rican and Dominican Dialogues on Feminism and Queerness
DESCRIPTION:Join CENTRO December 13th for a panel discussion and celebration of a very special issue of the Summer 2024 CENTRO Journal\, titled “Caudal: Contemporary Feminist & Queer Perspectives on Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.” This journal focuses on contemporary feminist and queer/cuir perspectives of cultural\, social\, and political phenomena from the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico and their global diasporas. \n\n\n\nThe writers of this issue “rock the boat” of national insularity to highlight the region’s deep connective tissues. In examining Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic\, this issue refuses to pick from here nor there\, and instead brings together feminist and queer approaches to spotlight our practices of joy\, resistance\, and survival in the face of racist\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, misogynist\, homophobic and transphobic Caribbean politics and maneuvers in the 21st century. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto Credit: Fue esa la vía\, Helen Ceballos\, 2020. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCaribe Cuir [Leisure Space] by Circuito Queer\n\n\n\n3:00 PM – 9:00 PM | Hunter East Harlem Gallery\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Hunter East Harlem Gallery opens up a tranquil space to relish on recent depictions of Caribbean cuir lives. The project Caribe Cuir: Las Casas de Ballroom will premiere showing 6 short films about the development of the Caribbean Kiki scene in both DR and PR by documenting local kinship formations. Come learn about the foundation of these houses: House of Goddesses\, Jaus of Pons\, Laboratoria Boricua del Vogue\, House of Soul\, Casa Atón\, and Draguéalo.  \n\n\n\nThis project is brought together by @cirqpr\, an organization that promotes strategic collaborations between activist and cultural initiatives headed by feminist and LGBTQIA+ and cuir leaders in the Spanish-speaking Caribbean. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCAUDAL [Roundtable] : Puerto Rican and Dominican Dialogues on Feminism and Queerness\n\n\n\n6:00 PM – 8:00 PM | Silberman Room 115AB\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpecial issue editors Dr. Celiany Rivera Velázquez and Dr. Carlos Ulises Decena initiate a roundtable discussion with a live reading of excerpts from the issue’s introduction to highlight its intentions\, uniqueness and impact. Field expert Zaire Dinzey-Flores (Rutgers)\, as invited responders to the issue\, will share their reflections. \n\n\n\nThe space will have a water-themed installations by artist Helen Ceballos. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCaudalosxs [the Reception] \n\n\n\n8:00 PM – 9:00 PM | Silberman Lobby\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter delving in the waters of Caudal\, we invite participants to let loose and dance to a performance by the queer and trans salsa band Las Mariquitas over some food and drinks to cheer the night and the semester away. The Hunter East Harlem Gallery will remain open through the night for folks to continue to enjoy the Caribbean Kiki [Lounge Space] and read a bit of the special issue before purchasing your own copy. Within the same space\, immerse yourself in Circuito Queer’s Las Casas de Ballroom\, a 6 part social media series to come out in 2025 about ballroom culture’s family formation on both islands. There will be 3 short documentaries about houses in DR (House of Soul\, Casa Atón\, and Draguéalo) and 3 short documentaries about houses in Puerto Rico (House of Goddesses\, Jaus of Pons\, Laboratoria Boricua del Vogue). These will play in the gallery’s video nook. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is made possible with the support of Rutgers University\, Circuito Queer\, and the Latinx Project at NYU.

SUMMARY:Cafecito con… Marisel Vera & Carmen Cruz-Venie
DESCRIPTION:Join CENTRO and Hunter College AFPRL Department for an event discussing the themes of colonialism\, relocation\, and the forging of Puerto Rican communities in Hawaii as shown in Marisel Vera’s book\, The Taste of Sugar and Carmen Cruz-Venie’s upcoming documentary Bajari: Honor and Respect. \n\n\n\nThe Taste of Sugar is a novel set in Puerto Rico on the eve of the Spanish-American War. Up in the mountainous region of Utuado\, Vicente Vega and Valentina Sanchez labor to keep their coffee farm from the creditors. When the great San Ciriaco hurricane of 1899 brings devastating upheaval\, the young couple is lured along with thousands of other puertorriqueños to the sugar plantations of Hawaii\, where they are confronted by the hollowness of America’s promises of prosperity. \n\n\n\nBajari: Honor and Respect is the untold story of the Puerto Rican laborers who emigrated to Hawaii to find work and faced many challenges\, including language\, adjustment to a different culture and people in a faraway land. The immigrants worked hard to establish themselves in their communities to make a better life for themselves and their families. Bajari is “a title of distinction and high respect” in the Taino dialect. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMissed the event? Catch the recording here!

SUMMARY:(Partner Event) El taller de Naldi / Naldi's Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Film screening at the International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival on November 17th\, 2024 at 2:00 PM.\n\nLogline: An octogenarian folk-artist uses his paintings to recount Puerto Rican family and life histories to his grandson.\n\nA film by Carlos Rivera Fernandez and Arnaldo Fernandez Cruz\n\nProduced by Películas Viejas Productions for the Granada Centre for Visual Anthropology\n\nEl Taller de Naldi is a journey that chronicles a visual history of Puerto Rico\, inspired by the paintings of Arnaldo Fernandez Cruz\, an octogenarian folk artist. Together with his grandson\, filmmaker Carlos\, this painter and director pair become the authors of a narrative that shines a perennial\, memorial light on Arnaldo’s hometown of Cupey. Through a series of testimonies\, ranging from hilarious epithets of his rural youth to unsettling histories from Puerto Rico’s colonial past\, the film captures the essence of the place and its people. Simultaneously\, Arnaldo and Carlos collaborate in a reciprocal creative process\, engaging deeply with each other’s work. By mixing historiography and folklore with an experimental approach to the artist’s craft\, El Taller de Naldi is at once a meditation on the role of art in preserving a national memory\, and an intimate portrait of the personal relationship between a grandfather and his grandson.

SUMMARY:(Partner Event) Jose Nogueras: Boricua Donde Quiera
DESCRIPTION:Kicking off the Navidad Season with IBA is Jose Nogueras!\n\nJosé Nogueras is one of Puerto Rico’s most versatile songwriters and singers. He has managed to reach the top of the music charts (Hit parade) in rock\, ballad\, Creole music and even tropical music.\n\nCheo Feliciano\, Rubén Blades\, Hector Lavoe\, Ismael Miranda\, Willie Colón\, Gilberto Santarrosa\, Manny Manuel\, Shakira\, Danny Rivera\, Los Hispanos\, Fernando Villalona and Olga Tañón are some of the artists who have performed his compositions.\n\nNogueras has been awarded over the years with important awards such as; “Composer of the Year” (Billboard Magazine)\, “Singer of the Year” (Agüeybana and Cemí Awards)\, “Christmas Production of the Year” and his compositions have always been distinguished by their simplicity\, depth and universal feeling.\n\nBorn in the town of Mayaguez where he was born on June 18\, 1951\, son of José Nogueras Chapel (QPD)\, from the town of Añasco and Milka Vega Soto from the city of cucumber\, San Sebastián. From an early age he felt a passion for music\, an inspiration that he has always channeled through the instrument he enjoys the most… the guitar. His father was a simple and humble human being\, with an extraordinary talent for poetry and perhaps it has been that vein that has allowed the development of José Nogueras as an author.\n\nAt the age of eight he came to reside in the city of Rio Piedras where he feels like an adopted son. During his school years\, between the ages of 8 and 16\, he participated in a number of musical groups. At the age of 17 he began his foray into music professionally.\n\nTheir record productions have been characterized by their excellent quality\, both technically and musically. Each of them is framed in a concept\, distinguished by its sensitivity and innovative way of harmonizing the topics.\n\nJosé Nogueras’ music has not only managed to captivate the Puerto Rican public with its contagious rhythm and flavor\, but has also been recognized in other Latin American countries and in the Hispanic sector of the United States.

SUMMARY:La Meriendita: Call Me Roberto
DESCRIPTION:Join CENTRO in East Harlem for La Meriendita\, a story hour dedicated to children’s books! This month’s Meriendita is Call Me Roberto\, written by Nathalie Alonso and illustrated by Rudy Gutierrez. \n\n\n\nRoberto Clemente always loved baseball. Growing up in Carolina\, Puerto Rico\, he swung tree branches (since he didn’t have a bat) and hit tin cans. He was always batting\, pitching\, running\, sliding. His dedication paid off when\, at the age of 19\, he was tapped for a major league team. \n\n\n\nAn inspirational story of Major League Baseball player Roberto Clemente—not Bob—who endured years of racism and discrimination to become one of the greatest baseball players of all time. \n\n\n\nBring your little ones by for snacks and a story that celebrates food\, family\, and working together! \n\n\n\nThis event is presented in collaboration with the East Harlem Tutorial Program \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto Credit: Cover by Rudy Gutierrez

SUMMARY:(Partner Event) Radical Sovereignties\, Radical Archives: The Archivo Histórico de Vieques
DESCRIPTION:Vulnerable communities enact sovereignties that decenter the state while strengthening relationships on which survival depends. This panel will delve into such radical praxis through a closer look at archiving and the Archivo Histórico de Vieques. The AHV is a community archive born out of the struggle against the U.S. Navy’s occupation of Vieques\, Puerto Rico (1940s-2003). In the early days\, it aimed to give voice to Viequenses and to counter the silences imposed by colonialism. Today\, the AHV continues to cultivate community-centered stories. Moreover\, it empowers community members to narrate history in their own terms and to\, through such enactment of narrative sovereignty\, chart out Viequense futures. This panel will accordingly address how archiving can be a praxis for narrative sovereignty that enables communities to reclaim their stories\, counteract historical erasures and assert control over their collective memory. Panelists include historians and archivist from the Puerto Rican archipelago and diaspora.

SUMMARY:(Partner Event) Our Love is a Shady Garden
DESCRIPTION:Yanira Vissepó blends painting\, natural dyes\, block printing and collage in her practice which centers around the study and celebration of the ecosystems between her birthplace in Puerto Rico and adopted home in Tennessee. The naturally dramatic landscape of Puerto Rico’s tropical rainforest and saturated colors in native plant life merge with the striking change of seasons seen in Tennessee\, creating lush and vibrant paintings. Vissepó uses organic materials and natural pigments\, drawing from Japanese printmaking traditions. Both the materials and imagery speak to her long-time interest in herbalism and holistic healing that began as an important means of self-care before manifesting in her artistic practice. Generous swaths of blue\, green and red are created using a stain painting method that add depth and texture to the surface\, with collaged floral and plant images delicately stitched onto the canvas or fabric.
