A conversation on how one artist’s journey from Brooklyn to Borikén became a multidisciplinary project documenting the rematriation journey in the archipelago and its diaspora.
This month, Rematriating Borikén project creator, Yasmín Hernández makes twelve years living in Borikén, and this summer the Rematriating Borikén project turns ten years old with the anniversary of its launch as a simple blog. In the years since, it has developed into a multidisciplinary project including the blog, podcast, interview series, painted portrait series, video series and the Trinchera de Ideas: Rematriation Conversations series. Yasmin will host this virtual conversation with intimate reflections on her own Brooklyn to Borikén journey. She will also share on documenting the collective Rematriation journey, and the lessons learned along the way.

Hosted by Yasmín Hernández, Brooklyn-born and raised/ Borikén-based artist, writer, cultural organizer and creator of the CucubaNación and Rematriating Borikén projects. rematriatingboriken.com ; yasminhernandez.art
