Afro Latin Soul

Sekou McMiller

An evening of dance and live music celebrating the past, present, and future intersections of communities that share a rich ancestry from the African continent. Afro Latin Soul highlights the jazz and African roots of salsa dance and music, and explores the connection between the Black and brown communities through ritual, sound, and movement. Sekou McMiller & Friends have performed at Jazz at Lincoln Center, Bryant Park, Little Island NYC, the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, Jacob’s Pillow Creative Lab, and Guggenheim: Works & Process.

Afro Latin Soul is co-presented by the CUNY Dance Initiative (CDI), an expansive program providing New York City choreographers and dance companies with residencies on CUNY college campuses. www.cuny.edu/danceinitiative
