In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, please join the Yale Latino Networking Group, Yale African American Affinity Group, and Brazilian Fitness Center for a virtual demonstration of capoeira, maculele, and samba. The purpose of this event is to impart key facts about Afro-Brazilian culture, demonstrate Afro-Brazilian culture using dance, inspire attendees to relate to Afro-Brazilian culture through participation in its music and dance, and share aspects of Latin American culture with which many are unfamiliar.

Join the Yale African American Affinity Group (YAAA) and Future Leaders of Yale (FLY) for a book club discussion on Black Fatigue: How Racism Erodes the Mind, Body, and Spirit by Mary-Frances Winters. Register by Wednesday, September 30 for your chance to win a free copy of the book!

This is the first book to define and explore Black fatigue, the intergenerational impact of systemic racism on the physical and psychological health of Black people–and explain why and how society needs to collectively do more to combat its pernicious effects.
