Today I give thanks! Celebrating another year of life. A simple day spent with most with the woman that gave birth to me. I cooked for my mom, my sister Tita, my Earth Patricia and Baby Rhea. Give thanks for all the calls, text, msg and prayers I received. The B&W pic is of me celebrating my 1st bday at my Abuela’s home in Cuba, surround by the kids from my barrio in Camaguey Cuba, the second pics was celebrating the end of 2024 ending our last event with the adults in the Culture, big kids from different Barrios. Thank you to Hip Hop for bringing all of us together. #EsquinaDeAbuela #Pisces #FireDragon #676 #Camaguey #Allapattah #305 taken in Esquina de Abuela by @esquinadeabuela

♥️ Any Amount will Help & Share ♥️
The past four years have been difficult, but we have created so many magical moments and wonderful memories. I have been low key about posting, but in the 15 days I will post a lot more, so that those that are watching can understand, what so many already do. The importance of Esquina De Abuela as a grassroots community cultural center that has served the local, national & international community.  With its desires and efforts to unite us through the arts, cultural experience, connecting, community and a sense of justice for all people. I hope you are able to contribute in whatever capacity you can to keep us going into this new chapter. Please check out bio where we have a fundrazr account and/or DM us for any larger donations or ideas to help us through these challenges. I’m only able to ask for help, because we have already helped so many in the last 9 years since I moved into the property, and about 8 years since I created “Esquina De Abuela” and now with “Soy La Caridad Foundation” soon we will be able to get Grants and Donations to continue to bless the community without it affecting the business side of things. Thank you @jaimeandresphoto for this interview & putting this video together on my Bday after I spent the morning at Miami Dade’s “STATE OF THE ARTS” meeting where I heard from so many speakers express the importance of Art & Culture at all levels including the grassroots level. More to come…
Please contribute and/or share with others. Thank you 🙏🏽 taken in Esquina de Abuela by @esquinadeabuela

Fuego at the Square ❤️‍🔥🇨🇺 Thank you to everyone who came out, shared space, created, listened, and supported.

Your presence and energy mean more than you know.

Right now, Cuba feels closer than ever to the possibility of freedom. The artistic movement inside the island is one of many resistance movements courageously pushing for change — and we are proud to amplify those voices.

Coincidentally, February 28 became an international day where Cubans around the world — inside and outside the island — were sharing one clear message: Cuba wants freedom. Through art, poetry, music, and conversation, we were able to be part of that global moment.

In times when narratives can get blurred, spaces like this matter. Art keeps truth alive. Community keeps hope alive.

Thank you for standing with us. ❤️‍🔥

Fuego en la Plaza ❤️‍🔥🇨🇺 Gracias a todos los que vinieron, compartieron el espacio, crearon, escucharon y apoyaron.

Su presencia y su energía significan más de lo que imaginan.

En este momento, Cuba se siente más cerca que nunca de la posibilidad de ser libre. El movimiento artístico dentro de la isla es uno de los muchos movimientos de resistencia que, con valentía, están impulsando el cambio — y nos sentimos orgullosos de amplificar esas voces.

Coincidentemente, el 28 de febrero se convirtió en un día internacional en el que cubanos alrededor del mundo — dentro y fuera de la isla — compartieron un mensaje claro: Cuba quiere libertad. A través del arte, la poesía, la música y las conversaciones, pudimos ser parte de ese momento global.

En tiempos donde las narrativas pueden confundirse, espacios como este son importantes. El arte mantiene viva la verdad. La comunidad mantiene viva la esperanza.

Gracias por estar con nosotros. ❤️‍🔥 by @esquinadeabuela

El espectáculo de medio tiempo del Super Bowl de ayer fue tan especial que se expresó un mensaje tan significativo y la historia y la cultura de Boriken se entregaron maravillosamente a una amplia audiencia. Y un recordatorio de que “Lo único más fuerte que el odio es el amor!!”

Puerto Rico tiene un lugar muy especial en mi corazón, desde que cuando vine de Cuba, esta isla acogieron a mi familia y ¡mis primeros recuerdos son de La isla del Encanto!

Mia Abuela por parte de padre esta enterados en Arecibo, tengo hermana, y sobrinos nacido en PR, tengo familia y buena amistad en la isla! 

Empeze kindergarten en PR, y termine mi Bachelor in la Inter de Cupey! Son muchas las mememorias de esta Bella isla, que orgullo para todo los latinos y benidicion para todos ver y escuchar esta musica y vibra tan positiva! 

Primera vez Que vi a @badbunnypr fue en @toejambacklot Augusto 25, 2017 con menos de 1,000 persona, y miralo ahora!!!
