On March 4 at Cafe Coda, the award-winning multilingual jazz band Afro Yaqui Music Collective is honored to be hosting Yaqui activists Mario Luna Romero and Anahí Ochoa. Barson and Rodriguez are artists in residence with the Division of the Arts and will be joined by UW’s Contemporary Jazz Ensemble directed by Johannes Wallmann and Barson, and members of Millennial Jazz. Revolutionary EmCee Nejma Nefertiti from New York will also be joining the ensemble, as will UW dance instructor and choreographer Peggy Myo-Young Choy. New pieces from students in Barson and Rodriguez's Artivism class will be premiered by student composers. Suggested donation: $10; no one turned away for lack of funds. All donations will go to supporting Radio Namakasía, a radio station and cultural center which broadcasts the struggle of the Yaqui people to defend their ancestral river from megacorporations and fracking.
