Afro-Colombian Representation in "Encanto."

Would you like to know more about Afro-Colombians? Did you know that Afro-Colombians have been in Colombia since the sixteenth century? Colombia is an extremely diverse country where no Afro-descendant is exactly like the other. Encanto is a film that was researched with the idea of not having an exaggerated characterization of the Afro-Colombian characters. From the clothing, to the hair and the varieties of skin tones you can appreciate the diversity among Afro-Colombians in Encanto. If you would like to know more, please join us for an informal discussion of this charming movie!

This conversation will be facilitated on zoom.
