Afropunk, a movement that has amplified alternative, genre-defying Black culture for over a decade, has tapped Miami as the backdrop for its upcoming Black Spring virtual festival, set to livestream on Friday, April 23.
A response to the social upheaval of 2020, Black Spring is a digital initiative to unite Black people across the diaspora with a focus on Afro-Latino and Afro-Caribbean culture. The music lineup encapsulates the festival’s theme with performances from Rico Nasty, Seu Jorge, Seafoam Walls, Dawer x Damper, Black Pantera, and Jup do Bairro.
Inspired by the new beginnings, a change in season, and the vibrancy of the Afro-Latino musical community, Black Spring aims to create a space for unapologetic celebration and liberation. The event will also continue the conversation about the varied Black experience across Latin American and Caribbean countries with segments broadcast from Bahia in Brazil and Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.
