Manuel is a world- rAfroConex is brought to you by Manuel Kanza and Kenney Tonge. We are dancers, who have a deep passion and love for Afro movement and culture. We believe the world has only seen a small part of the beauty and diversity of black cultures. From the dances that move our communities, to the rhythms that pulsate through our streets, we capture the vibrancy of black culture, and celeb
rate the artists creating the culture. We see AfroConex as a space where all forms of Afro Cultures coexist. A space that fosters cultural conex-tions through dance and music, and where the artists—specifically dance artists are the stars of the show. We recognize that internet connectivity, opportunity and respect for the arts are often lacking in many of our Afro communities, and contribute to limited visibility of the culture. We hope that AfroConex can bridge this gap by providing artists an outlet to showcase their art. How we do it:
We work directly with artists to share their stories and contributions to their culture. We believe that artists, especially dance artists are vital to the energy of our cultures. We share their stories through dance visuals, documentaries, photography, written articles and interviews.
