Solidarity doesn’t end with the first act of giving. ❤️🇨🇴

When the earthquake struck Colombia, our community came together to support those affected. Today, that commitment continues.

A heartfelt thank-you to @poderdelpueblodc, MasPaz, and Abby for their additional $1,663.80 contribution toward solar energy support for earthquake-affected communities. This continued generosity helps sustain efforts to bring solar-powered lighting to communities as they navigate recovery.

Your decision to give again is a powerful reminder that meaningful solidarity is not just about showing up once, but continuing to stand with people long after the initial moment of crisis.

From all of us at LiberArte, thank you for keeping that spirit alive. 💛💙❤️

A new mural is coming to life in Chirilagua, and we’re honored to help tell its story. Here’s some behind-the-scenes of the process so far.

Watching the neighborhood stop by to admire the work has been beautiful, and seeing kids come out to help paint has been one of the highlights of this project.

Much love to our friends and artists @maspaz, @shanishih, and @joelartista of @Artolution for having us.

We can’t wait to share the video with y’all!

At #nokingswoodbridgeva we were lucky enough to have a poster designed by @maspaz . We promoted early voting, voter information, immigrant rights in addition to having a food drive, kid crafts, live music and a honk-n-wave sign rally. Got in my 10,000 steps! #nokings #voteearly

NDNPrep-tember 09.30.26 National Day for Truth and Reconciliation 🏵️ 🕊️

Say their names. Remember their stories. Honor their legacy… 🖤

“We can learn about it from exceptional people of our own culture, and from other cultures less destructive than ours. I am speaking of the life of a man who knows that the world is not given by his fathers, but borrowed from his children; who has undertaken to cherish it and do it no damage, not because he is duty-bound, but because he loves the world and loves his children…
~ Wendell Berry, The Unforeseen Wilderness: An Essay on Kentucky’s Red River Gorge (1971) 💚

[June 22, 2018] Rock Rubber 45s screening at the Kennedy Center presented by @koolboblove

The film tells Bobbito’s story, from his youth and personal struggles to the creative path he built through basketball, sneakers and music, inspiring a generation and leaving his mark on New York culture.

After the screening, @koolboblove @stretcharmstrong and @richmedina took over the decks 🔥

My friends @maspaz @misschelove and vinyl head @vicovibez were there too. It was cool to see a MasPaz sticker on Bobbito’s laptop and watch them all connect and chat.

We watched a great film, danced to jamz from the OGs, and did it all at @ourkennedycenter in the capital of the country. I always loved seeing that place make room for hip-hop and different cultures, bringing people from all backgrounds together.

A special night in the District, la pura sabrosura 💯
