SUMMARY:The Spirit of Aña
DESCRIPTION:Afro-Brazilian drum group Batala NYC\, screening of the documentary film Sweet Dreams and Q&A with director Rob Fruchtman\, dance & shekere lesson by members of the Legacy Circle Women Drummers\, screening of film clip from Oya: Something Happened on the Way to West Africa with Bronx filmmaker Seyi Adebanjo.\nScreening of the film\, Sweet Dreams\, followed by percussion workshop led by members of the Legacy Circle Women Drummers and performance by Batala NYC.\nThe Yoruba people from Nigeria practice the spiritual tradition of Ifá\, which is the basis for Cuban Santeria. The religious rituals practiced honoring the divine spirits called orishas. During a ceremony the sacred drums called batá are played. They are a set of three double-headed hourglass-shaped drums which are used to communicate directly with the orishas. They are prepared for religious events and charged with the spirit of the drum called\, aña—the orisha that lives within the drums. The largest drum\, iya (mother drum) is the leader. The middle drum is called\, itotele and it converses with the iya. The smallest\, okonkolo\, maintains the rhythms. Though traditionally only men played these drums\, the spirit of Aña was feminine.\nIn Cuba\, women are not allowed to play these drums once they are consecrated (fundamento)\, though they can dance to its rhythms. This sexual division of labor in religion or work is common in many societies. Separate duties for men and women doesn’t necessarily imply restriction in participation during sacred ceremonies. Sometimes the division of labor in drumming derives from practical concerns. In cooperative economies\, the combined sharing and complementary rules for individuals of different ages and sexes were part of all aspects of life. Today\, as we live in societies that have more diverse individual roles\, we no longer follow such rigid rules and the boundaries become more fluid. Women can dance and play the drum—the Spirit of Aña made manifest.

SUMMARY:Afri-Garifuna Ensemble featuring Lucy Blanc
DESCRIPTION:In honor of the 13th anniversary of the Proclamation of the Garifuna Language\, Music and Dance as Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO The program will open with a screening of the film\, Revolutionary Medicine: A Story of the First Garifuna Hospital followed by a Q&A.\nThe Maxine Sullivan Women in Jazz Series\ncurated by Valerie Capers\, Elena Martínez and Bobby Sanabria\nMaxine Sullivan (1911-1987) was born Marietta Williams in Homestead\, Pennsylvania. She came to New York City in 1937. During her first week here she went to “Swing Street\,” as 52nd Street was known\, and became the vocalist for the house band at the Onyx Club. Her first week also saw her debut at a recording session with the Claude Thornhill Orchestra. Thornhill suggested she sing a swing version of the Scottish folk song\, “Loch Lomond.” This song was a hit and gave her international acclaim. In 1938 she appeared in the movie Go- ing Places with Louis Armstrong\, where they introduced the song\, “Jeepers Creepers.” She also appeared on Broadway with Louis Armstrong and Benny Goodman in a jazz version of “A Midsummer’s Night’s Dream.” In 1940 she performed with John Kirby (a bandleader and her husband) on a national weekly radio program called “Flow Gently Sweet Rhythm.” They were pioneers in that they were among the first Black jazz musicians to have their own radio program. In 1958 she was one of three women to appear in the legendary “A Great Day in Harlem” photograph (along with Marian McPartland and Mary Lou Williams). By 1957 she had remarried to stride pianist Cliff Jackson. She temporarily retired to stay home and raise her daughter\, and during this time was involved in Bronx civic affairs and community organizing from her home at 818 Ritter Place. The home also became the setting of jam sessions involving local jazz musicians. In 1945 Maxine and her husband bought another house at 1312 Stebbins Avenue which had previously been the home of musician Eddie Mallory and his wife vocalist Ethel Waters. Maxine and Cliff convert- edit to a boardinghouse where musicians such as trombonist Vic Dickenson and drummer Marquis Foster stayed. When Jackson died in 1979 Maxine wanted to open a jazz community center and museum dedicated to her late husband\, and thus the home on Stebbins Avenue became known as “The House That Jazz Built\,” having its grand opening on July 19\, 1975. Sullivan’s generosity is remembered in other ways as well. Jazz pianist Valerie Capers\, who grew up in the Morrisania area on Union Street\, remembers seeing Maxine in the neighborhood at Ritter Place. As a teenager interested in jazz\, Valerie and a friend went to Maxine’s house and were invited in to talk. Valerie has always remembered this kindness for a “celebrity” to take the time to talk to young people in the neighborhood. In recognition of this\, and to also recognize the many unsung women musicians in jazz\, we have decided to name the new featured series at the Bronx Music Heritage Center in her honor: celebrating someone who has opened doors both literally and figuratively.\nFilm Screening: Revolutionary Medicine: A Story of the First Garifuna Hospital\nRevolutionary Medicine: A Story of the First Garifuna Hospital is a documentary film about a community that got fed up and built their own hospital.\nSince their expulsion from the island of Saint Vincent 215\nyears ago\, the Garifuna have struggled against exclusion\,\nracism\, and dispossession of their land and territory. Today\, their very first hospital serves as a bastion of self-determination. Revolutionary Medicine tells the story of how the hospital’s alternative health model is transforming communities on Honduras’ northern coast and standing as an alternative to the increasingly privatized national health system. You will see if a remote hospital that runs on solar panels\, in a community without paved roads or electricity\, can provide a new global model for health care? The film is co-directed by Beth Geglia and Jesse Freeston. Media makers who have been working in solidarity with Honduran communities since the 2009 military coup. A Q&A will follow by Nixon Arauz\, who participated in the film.\nThe Maxine Sullivan Women in Jazz Series\, Pt. III The Afri-Garifuna Jazz Ensemble featuring Lucy Blanco\nAfri-Garifuna Jazz originated at 1474 Bushwick Avenue in Brooklyn in the spring of 2011. The new musical art form has a unique and distinct sound because it incorporates the traditional Garifuna rhythms such as punta\, paranda\, and hungu hungu with jazz to create music from a Garifuna perspective. New York City has always been a place where vibrant fusions have emerged. Big band jazz and Afro-Cuban son fused in 1939 by Machito & the Afro-Cubans to form Afro-Cuban jazz; R&B mixed with Cuban rhythms in the 1960s to form Latin bugalú (or boogaloo). Now NYC is the home to the new fusion led by the Afri-Garifuna Jazz Ensemble.\nThe group had its beginnings in Los Angeles in 2008 when jazz vocalist Lucy Blanco began learning more about her Garifuna heritage. She began blending the Garifuna language and percussive rhythms with jazz aided by her music director\, Michael Andres. The first piece recorded this concept in 2009 with a demo of Wayne Shorter’s\, “Speak No Evil.” Lucy returned to her hometown and Jazz Mecca\, New York City that same year\, and was able to work with some of the best jazz musicians in the city\, continuing to fuse jazz standards with traditional Garifuna songs. The Garifuna jazz sound continued to evolve as Lucy collaborated with James Lovell\, becoming the Afri-Garifuna Jazz Ensemble.

SUMMARY:The Borinqueeners
DESCRIPTION:Q&A with executive producer Noemi Figueroa Soulet and 65th Regiment veteran Eugenio Quevado.\nThe Borinqueneers chronicles the never-before-told story of the Puerto\nRican 65th Infantry Regiment\, the only all-Hispanic unit in U.S. Army history\, The 65th Infantry Regiment was nicknamed “The Borinqueneers” after “Borinquen\,” the name given to the island by its indigenous inhabitants\, the Taino\, Finally give the chance to be fully participate in a military conflict they excelled during the first years of the Koran War\, earning great praise from General MacArthur But in the fall of 1952 the regiment would be the center of a series of dramatic events\, where dozens of its soldiers abandoned their positions and were tried in one of the larges courts marital of the war. “It was the first case in this war in which men from a unit that won international\nrecognition for bravery unexplainedly seemed to have changed their character under fire\,” The New York Times. For more than 50 years\, the events that led to the regiment’s darkest hour have been shrouded in mystery and controversy. The Borinqueneers sheds light on this story through the dramatic testimony of the men who were there.\nIt is fitting we screen The Borinqueneers this November in honor of Veteran’s Day celebrated this month\, but also because as BORIMIX has dedicated this month to Rafael Hernández\, who came to the mainland as part of the 369th Regiment in World War I. It is a reminder\, that when those who have a powerful voice and large platform within society— such as Ken Burns did with his WWII documentary—but neglect to include our stories\, then we must tell them ourselves. Rafael was one of 18 musicians who enlisted to serve in the “Harlem Hellfighters” Regimental Band (the band that introduced many of France’s citizens to early jazz music—so we were also part of jazz’s early history too!); and many Latinos from all over the country enlisted and fought during World War II. A young Ernest “Tito” Puente joined the Navy in the 1940s and took part in many battles\, including Guadalca- nal (Photo courtesy of Joni and Ronnie Puente).\nFor more information see:\nThe Voces Oral History Project documents the contributions of U.S. Latinos and Latinas of the WWII\, Korean War and Vietnam War generations. The project was created in 1999 by University of Texas journalism professor Maggie Rivas-Rodriguez and initially focused solely on the WWII generation. At the time\, it was known as the U.S. Latino & Latina WWII Oral History Project. In 2010\, the project ex- panded into the Korean War and the Vietnam War generations of Latinos and Latinas: http://www.lib.utexas.edu/voces/

SUMMARY:TATS Cru: The Mural Kings
DESCRIPTION:With Q&A with director Mark Kotlinski and TATS Cru members BG183\, Bio and Nicer\nIn the 70s graffiti artists would gather around DeWitt Clinton High in the Bronx which was just blocks away from the Transit Authority yard where subway cars were stored. With spray paint and felt tipped pens they would create guerilla art on the cars. The impulse to “tag” and leave one’s mark or name may arise out of a need to proclaim one’s existence and identity in an environment which doesn’t leave many possibilities for finding status or upward mobility. Also arising out of this was the tradition of memorial walls which used graffiti aesthetics. There is the historic precedent in Catholic countries of a memorial tradition.\nPuerto Rico is the primary source for NYC’s variation on the memorial theme due to its large Puer- to Rican population. On the island roadside cross- es can be seen erected along the rural roads at the sites of auto accidents. The cross is a reminder to pray for the person’s soul–since that person did not receive last rites\, it is believed their soul will stay longer in Purgatory before going to Heaven. The memorial walls place this tradition in an urban context and aesthetic. It was in the late 1980s that the memorial murals burst onto the scene\, emerging in the same era when crack\, AIDS and illegal guns were on the rise in urban communities. The murals reflected the consequences from the rising violence and drug use in the City’s neighborhoods and provide the public with a way to recognize the loss. It was also during this time that graffiti artists were driven from the subways\, the original preferred sites\, by city officials to the walls of buildings which became their new canvasses. Later artists turned to neighborhood businesses offering customized advertisements for a fee. TATS Cru have created hundreds of memorial walls throughout the City but also have gained international fame for their artwork and have been featured at the Smithsonian Institution’s Festival of American Folklife.\nMark Kotlinki (Director) is a co-founder of 88HIPHOP\, the world’s first internet hip hop video channel that helped launch the careers of artists such as Eminem\, 50 Cent\, Big Pun\, Nelly\, Outkast and many others. Currently\, he is a Producer of “Marley Marl Classic Recipes\,” a web series featuring Marley Marl\, one of the most respected hip-hop producers. Each episode tells the story behind one of his classic hip hop songs\, while recreating the music on the latest equipment. Mark’s directorial debut documentary\, TATS CRU:The Mural Kings\, world premiered at\nthe Urbanworld Film Festival and then aired on The Documentary Channel (US)\, Sky Arts (UK)\, and SBS (Australia) television networks.

SUMMARY:Style Wars
DESCRIPTION:With Q&A by producer Henry Chalfant\nIn the 70s graffiti artists would gather around DeWitt Clinton High in the Bronx which was just blocks away from the Transit Authority yard where subway cars were stored. With spray paint and felt tipped pens they would create guerilla art on the cars. The impulse to “tag” and leave one’s mark or name may arise out of a need to proclaim one’s existence and identity in an environment which doesn’t leave many possibilities for finding status or upward mobility. What better way to get your presence known then write it on a subway car which goes through the entire City? When director Tony Silver and co-producer Henry Chalfant delivered the broadcast version of their prize-winning film to PBS in 1983\, the world received its first full immersion in the phenomenon that had taken over New York City. The urban landscape was physically transformed by graffiti artists who invented a new visual language to express both their individ- uality\, and the voice of their community. Style Wars chronicles an extraordinary epoch of youthful creativity and civic controversy. In this film we see New York’s ramshackle subway system as the young artists’ public playground\, battleground\, and spectacular artistic canvas. Opposing them were Mayor Ed Koch\, the police\, and the Transit Authority. As MC’s\, DJ’s and b-boys rocked the city with new sounds and new moves\, street corner breakdance battles turned into performance art. Dancers featured are Crazy Legs from Rock Sready Crew and Frosty freeze\, and some of the many writers include: Crash\, Daze\, Dondi\, Seen\, Futura\, and Kase.

SUMMARY:Antonia Pantoja ¡Presente!
DESCRIPTION:Antonia Pantoja (1922-2002)\, visionary Puerto Rican educator\, activist\, and early proponent of bilingual education\, inspired multiple generations of young people and fought for many of the rights that people take for granted today. Unbowed by obstacles she encountered as a black\, Puerto Rican woman\, she founded ASPIRA to empower Puerto Rican youth\, and created other enduring leadership and advocacy organizations in New York and California\, across the United States\, and in Puerto Rico. Recognized for her achievements in 1996\, Dr. Pantoja was awarded the prestigious Presidential Medal of Freedom\, the highest honor bestowed upon civilians in the US.\nIn this important documentary\, Pantoja’s compelling story is told through never-before-seen home movies\, archival footage\, and personal passionate testimony from Pantoja herself and some of her countless protégés\, as well as her life partner. Highlighting major landmarks in Pantoja’s biography and long\, productive career\, the film shows her profound commitment to transforming society\, her pivotal role in the Puerto Rican community’s fight to combat racism and discrimination\, and her pioneering work in securing a bilingual voice in the US. An eloquent tribute to a remarkable woman\, the film sheds new light on the Puerto Rican community’s far-reaching triumphs.\nWith a Q&A by producer/director Lillian Jiménez
