The Pan-Africanism 12 inch record collection, Höröyá on Vinyl
With the Tropical Diaspora® Records Pan-Africanism collection we celebrate our relationship with the band Grupo Höröyá. The purpose is to create a strong musical narrative about African and the African Diaspora living in Brazil nowadays. The same kind of people who are resisting against enslavement and colonization in the past so now more then ever. Music always was and is a way of resistance, a political and social instrument that can unify and uplift people of African ancestry world wide. We are committed to create a musical narrative about the people who crossed the Atlantic from Africa to the Americas, the encounter with the oringinary people and gave rise to cultural expressions that reflect both the horror and hope of that experience. Our language is music. We feel obliged to empower the people we work with by means of giving them the chance to control their own narrative.
