Taína Asili Social Justice Series Day 3 – Abolition
UNC Chapel Hill - Campus Y
Join us for three days of programming hosted by UNC’s Campus Y with New York-based Puerto Rican singer, filmmaker, and activist, Taína Asili. Asili’s Afro-Latin fusion sound of love and liberation has inspired audiences at venues across the globe – From the Women’s March on Washington to Carnegie Hall to the mainstage of San Francisco Pride. Her freedom anthems, music videos, and documentaries inspired by social movements for racial, gender, and climate justice have been lauded by the likes of Rolling Stone, Billboard, and NPR. Join us for three workshops and a performance, April 12-14, 2023.
