An interview that I did with my brother-comrade E As Poetlovewater, a/k/a Etaniel Ben Yehuda. It was an honor for me to do the interview, and work with the brother in this creative outlet. We had fun doing the interview, and it's ALWAYS great for me to spend time with good friends. Enjoy the YouTube clip!!!

Be part of the AfroLatino Book Campaign
Be part of the AfroLatino Book Campaign
Target: To send minimum 850 books to Latin America. 50 copies minimum of the book will be giving to 17 countries in Latin America (go to our website, www.elvia-duque-castillo.com to see a complete information of countries and local partners). The selected countries are among the countries studied as part of the book.
Goal of the campaign AfroLatinos have made enormous contribution to their respective countries in Latin America. However, people don’t know or not acknowledge their contributions. We believe that knowledge will help to improve the respect for cultural diversity, promote tolerance and increase the self-esteem of kids and young AfroLatinos. Therefore, the objective of the “AfroLatino Book Campaign” is to collect donations from May 24th – Sept 20th, 2013 to give a gift of the book “Aportes del Pueblo Afrodescendiente: La Historia Oculta de America Latina” to a poor school or community organization located on Black community in Latin America.
For
your information: The author of the book is Elvia Duque Castillo, who
is also the program coordinator of the AfroLatino Book Campaign. The
book provides more than 400 names/biographies from 17 countries from
Latin America and has been identified as one of the most informative and
comprehensive book in the subject. The English version of the book is
called "Contributions of African Descendant People: the Hidden History
of Latin America" and will be released in July, 2013.
