    🌸 I used to attend Bomba y Plena performances at the COPI Center. Loved to go there as an observer and take photographs of the dancers and spectators. I speak Spanish and have always been mistaken for Puerto Rican. But I’m not. I used to live on the island for long time. Wrote about food and travel.
    It is uplifting to see your personal journey and how PR captured your soul. Have you ever attended the Annual Festival de Bomba y Plena de San Antón in Loiza?

      I have not but that sounds like a lot of fun. The first year we were here it was Covid so they weren’t having all the festivals then this year we had a baby. We are still trying to figure out childcare but once we do we will be trying to do alot more events.
      Are you in PR?

    I wish more Americans and foreigners visit town Loiza more often, and African Americans should know about Loiza as well. That's the real connection and the feel of Africa. I wish all Bomba groups, the municipality of Loiza and PRTC (Puerto Rico Tourism Company), do more about this type of activity, such as monthly calendars. So close to San Juan. Love bomba and alcapurrias!!!!!

    • @GetIntoTheBLACK
      @GetIntoTheBLACK  3 месяца назад +2

      Yessss!!!! Omg anytime I know someone is here I tell them to go to Pinones and Loiza. I swear you feel so connected to the space. I felt the same way I visited NOLA which is where my family is from. Something about the spirit of the ancestors in those places. They are alive and well and you can feel it. We will forsure be posting more content like this and thank you so much for being so supportive!
