Cada voz tiene su historia, cada cuerpo, sus memorias. De estas surgen hilos que conectan, y con los cuales las comunidades tejen lazos que las sustentan.
En América Latina, la oralidad y la corporalidad han sido formas clave de resistencia y resiliencia ante el impacto colonial. Asimismo, la comunidad migrante en Berlín redescubre y reinventa constantemente sus hilos, cantos, bailes, memorias y experiencias en el complejo proceso de la migración.
Con Canto Diáspora: Voces, Cuerpos, Comunidades y Resistencia, el ensamble femenino Canto Diáspora de Berlín te invita, justo a 532 años del inicio de la Conquista y la Colonización de América Latina, a un fin de semana dedicado a crear espacios de reflexión, auto(cuidado) y resistencia para y con la comunidad.

El evento incluye una serie de talleres, charlas y performances dirigidos al público adulto. En este marco, las poderosas mujeres de Canto Diáspora compartirán sus saberes, creaciones y experiencias para contar la historia de una manera diferente; para reconectar con bailes de resistencia y con la propia corporalidad. Para darle libertad a la voz que nos empodera, y tejer memorias a partir de lo que hoy somos. De esta manera invitamos además a honrar a todas las mujeres que históricamente han sabido ser guía y sostén dentro de los sectores más vulnerables de la sociedad.
Canto Diáspora concluirá la celebración con un gran concierto abierto al público.
Each voice has its story, each body, its memories. From them emerge the threads that connect us, that weave communities and create the ties that sustain them.
In Latin America, orality (communication and knowledge transfer based in speech instead of writing) and corporeality have been key forms of resistance and resilience in the face of the colonial impact. Likewise, the migrant community in Berlin constantly rediscovers and reinvents its songs, its dances, its weaving, its memories and experiences in the complex process of migration.
With Canto Diáspora: Voices, Bodies, Communities, and Resistance, the Berlin-based women’s vocal ensemble, Canto Diáspora, invites you on the weekend of the 10 – 13th of October, exactly 532 years after the Conquest and the beginning of the Colonization of Latin America, to a weekend dedicated to creating spaces for reflection, (self-)care, and resistance for and with the community.
The event includes a series of workshops, talks and performances in which the powerful women of Canto Diáspora will share their knowledge, wisdom, creations, and experiences,, and invite you to engage with this history and its legacy in a variety of ways and to enter into conversation about it: How can we reconnect with dances of resistance and with their own corporeality? How can we free the voice that empowers us? How can we weave memories that ackowledge our histories and are equally based on who we are today?
This weekend is dedicated to all those women* who have historically and still are in the present, the caretakers and holders of our communities, in particular for those who are the most vulnerable groups amongst us.
Canto Diáspora will conclude and celebrate this weekend with a concert open to the public on Sunday.
