AfroMexico Project

In Mexico the role of Africans in the development of the nation lacks official recognition, and one of the main goals of the Afro- Mexico project is to heighten the much needed recognition .

This project’s intention is to become an informative tool based on discussion about the different aspects that characterize the African heritage in Mexico.

The core of this project consists in the realization of a series of video documentaries that explore different aspects of the African-Mexican people. So far the first two documentaries of the series have been finished and published which are, "LA RAIZ OLVIDADA" ( The Forgotten Root) and "DE FLORIDA A COAHUILA" (From Florida to Coahuila).

Presently we are working on our third documentary "CORRERIAS EN EL MONTE",(Incursions into the Mountains) and we are seeking financial support in order to finish the work in progress. We are raising these funds in the form of co-production, sale of rights of distribution and support from organizations with the objective of promoting projects of cultural character. Another way to support us is by buying our documentaries which are available in a subtitled version in English from our distributor in the US, Latin American Video Archives.
