Celia influenced me at the the tender age of 8 when I was in an afterschool dance program where I learned Cha Cha, Tango, Salsa, Meringue, Cuimba, and of course Ruumba. We used to sing this one song called “Mama Te Quero” which I will never forget. She has the strongest voice reminiscent of a latina Aretha [...]

Symbols: ArcheTypes
