Rara! (Encore)
April 25, 2011 Monday AT 3PM CT

 
 

Join us for a special live performance from DJA-Rara, the Brooklyn-based Haitian rara band. There are many explanations of the origins of rara, but whatever its beginnings, this raucous, peripatetic, and subversive music has endured and been embraced by the Haitian American community in New York City as an expression of Haitian pride, culture and identity. Rebroadcast from September 23, 2010
