Perreo 101 Testimonials: Dr. AlÁn Pelaez Lopez’s Art exhibition N[eg]ation at Harvard Spring ‘23

If I could describe Gata in one word, it’s brave. I saw Gata speak at an exhibit at Harvard, and what I appreciated most was the courage and vulnerability that she showed. Anyone can show up and present their knowledge, but to speak about their healing journey and let an audience in on what is at stake in this movement— that is brave. Spreading awareness about the history of reggaeton is not just about educating the masses, it’s about dismantling a system of power. Gata’s strength is inspiring others through her unapologetic, compassionate, and bold style of leadership. I highly recommend joining any seminar of hers!
