Each mixtape represents a narrative constructed by program participants, these narratives centered on various themes of history, struggle, hope and at times have provided catharsis to the frustration and rage Latinx often feel as a result of social isolation and othering. Through this project youth created a shared vocabulary of meeting, deconstructed colonial history, learned about the history of Black and Brown music, and practices the technique of deejaying. They produced both the soundscape and visuals for each mix.
