Hey Mix(ed)tape Listeners! Today we launch the first episode of the remixed Were You Listening? series with our very first episode devoted to the song Raza by Alexander Abreu y Havana D'Primera.
We started the Were You Listening series with the song Raza because it was sparked by the tragic events (George Floyd's killing in 2020) that also sparked our own desire here at The Mix(ed)tape Podcast to honor and highlight the contributions of Black people to the Afro-Latin and Afro-Caribbean music and dances we love. In Raza, Alexander poses a series of basic questions that shake us strongly due to their simplicity and veracity. Alexander asks, why is there still racism even though we are the same in our capacity as human beings? ... Who hasn't spent countless hours pondering in frustration about the answer to this question?
Were we listening?
We hope this track helps to add value to your listening and awareness in your dancing!
