Summary
"Founded in 1979, Olodum is an internationally acclaimed Afro-Brazilian cultural group that celebrates African heritage and black pride through music, dance theater, and art. Olodum's home city of Salvador da Bahia in northeastern Brazil is considered by many to be the most African city in the Americas. This video introduces the troupe, highlighting their dedication to the use of art as a positive weapon in the fight against racial discrimination and socioeconomic inequity"--Distributor's website.
