Madrid/Racism, discrimination and exclusions within Cuban society will be the central themes of a cultural meeting in Madrid, organized around the book Those excluded from the Cuban revolution. The activity will bring together several of its authors and will combine the debate with the visual arts and gastronomy of the Island.
Laritza Diversent, Yanelys Núñez, Kirenia Yalit Núñez and María Matienzo will participate, who will address the experiences of racial discrimination in Cuba and the different ways in which these are manifested in the social, political and cultural life of the country.
The day will include an exhibition of the work of the artist Raychel Carrión and a gastronomic proposal by La Purita Sabor Cubano. The purpose is to provide a space for conversation and exchange in which literature, art and cuisine accompany a collective reflection on identity, inequality and memory.
The meeting will be held in Osikán, a cultural project founded by the Cuban creator José Ramón Hernández, dedicated to artistic research, community practices and dialogue on Afro-descendant experiences, migrations and contemporary identities.
The activity has the support of Civil Rights Defenders, an international organization dedicated to the defense of human rights.
