This is the final video short compilation of two of the "Teatro Sin Fronteras / Theater without Borders"seven-part performance series produced by José Torres-Tama & ArteFuturo Productions in partnership with PUENTES New Orleans back in 2015. It was funded by Alternate ROOTS' Partners in Action grant, and over four months from May to August, this seven-part series presented some 65 plus Latinx artists to highlight the cultural contributions our artists, musicians, and poets have made to the "arts renaissance" of post-Katrina New Orleans for the 10th anniversary of the storm. Also, it was developed in solidarity with our Latin American immigrant community that has given of their blood, labor, and love to the rebirth of New Orleans from her post-Katrina deathbed.

It features Pastor Oscar Ramos, activist priest and singer, poet Melinda Palacio, Blake Amos & Leo Oliveira of "Intimos" Brazilian Bossa Nova duo, visual artist Veronica Isabel Giraldo-Puente, singer and poet Omaira Falcon, Butoh performer Odile Nicole Del Giudice, visual artist Cynthia Ramirez, Cuban crooner Alexis "Papo" Guevera, and singer and poet José Fermin Ceballos. Filmed & edited by Yves Elizalde and Orestes Montero

Latin American people have a long legacy in New Orleans, and while organizations like the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities (LEH) have disappeared our people in their 2018 Tricentennial history book, we are here to stay. We will tell our own stories, and we will perform our culture! Ashé y Adelante y Si Se Puede!
