Overview
For the past 14 years, the Ilú Obá de Min - Educação Cultura e Arte Negra promotes parades on the streets of São Paulo with its afro feminine band that celebrates themed carnivals. There’s always an homage to a black woman, embracing our history, fight and productions. In 2019, we sang “Black Voices” and spread “Alakan Time” - word that means alliances in Yoruba.
