Flamen-Curando the colonial wound and claiming our birthright to and inheritance of the art that is Flamenco, the art that became our collective cry for freedom and our medicine, just as it was intended. Gitano, Indígena, Chicano, Mexicano, Cubano, French, Black - Flamencos. We come together in the puro and raw healing spirit of the art. Make no mistake, ancestral soul medicine is what we do." - Compañia Flamenca Nuestra Señora Reina de Los Angeles
