Afro-Latina trailblazer Amara La Negra has taken her advocacy and artistry to new heights with the launch of Amara Fest, a free community festival in partnership with the City of Miami. Originally set to take place on Saturday, October 11, 2025, at Juan Pablo Duarte Park, the event promises a vibrant celebration of culture, music, and community. With performances by artists such as Safaree, Domino Saints, Lady M, 2Nyce, and La Negra herself, Amara Fest is poised to become a significant cultural event in Miami. 

This initiative marks a significant milestone in Amara La Negra’s journey, reflecting her commitment to uplifting Afro-Latina voices and fostering community engagement. Her efforts have been recognized by the City of Miami, which honored her with a proclamation acknowledging her contributions to culture and community. 

Amara Fest is more than just a music festival; it’s a testament to the power of representation and the importance of creating spaces where Afro-Latina identities are celebrated and amplified. As Amara La Negra continues to break barriers and redefine cultural narratives, Amara Fest stands as a beacon of her dedication to her roots and her community.

Due to weather, the event is postponed.

Ian Lara’s Growing Shame on Comedy Central is puro corazón y chiste. En solo 30 minutos, el dominicano de Queens te lleva por un trip de risas, familia, luto, y lo awkward que es adulting. He’s chill, funny, and real con su cultura—sin tener que overexplain. It’s comedy con alma, donde te ríes, pero también te quedas pensando. This one? Mandatory pa' cualquiera que quiera humor con raíz.
