At the intersection of African and Latin American heritage lies Afro-Latinidad — a vibrant, complex identity that challenges monolithic understandings of race, ethnicity, and belonging. In this episode, the House’s host, Aby Haile, sits down with Myah Salazar (MY ’28) and Sebas Perez (MY ’28) to unpack what it means to be Afro-Latinx at Yale. Through their Dominican and Cuban identities, they discuss navigating spaces of identity, building community, and redefining what multiculturalism looks like within elite academic spaces.
