Black Art and Culture Journey to Spain and Morocco in June 2015.  A five city, 12 day exploration of the African heritage of Spain and Morocco.  Too often when we hear about Spain and Morocco on the news we fail to remember (and celebrate) the deep black African roots that shaped those countries legacies.  Nor are we aware of the way the African heritage continues to shape and inform the contemporary ideas in these countries. 

Cost includes airfare from New York City.
