Sobre este episodio
Danyeli Rodriguez Del Orbe On this episode of Tamarindo, we speak to Danyeli Rodriguez Del Orbe, a poet, spoken word artist and cultural expression activist from the Dominican Republic raised in The Bronx. In her writing, she explores womanhood/ gender, love, and migration, and in this beautiful interview, we touch on all those topics and more. During the conversation we talk about the latest immigration policy developments and how they are affecting specifically black migrants. Please check out the Haitian Bridge Alliance if you’d like to get involved. We honor Mental Health awareness month by speaking to what it meant to be well, sharing an exercise you can do when you’re caught in an anxiety spiral, and Danyeli shares her personal process of going through deep depression and coming out on the other side. Danyeli’s work has been featured by the Bronx Museum of Arts, Museum of African Diaspora (MoAD), People en Español, NPR, and more. She was a recipient of the Define American Immigrant Artist Fellowship and Grant for an upcoming film project on Dominican migration. NOTE: Since the recording of this episodes, the Dodgers apologized to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and walked back their choice to uninvite the sisters. The sisters have graciously accepted the Dodgers apology.
