From : “Zumbi Festival is a community gathering of Black Consciousness, the power of community honoring Zumbi dos Palmares and all the leaders that unify and empower our community in the Bay Area. Zumbi dos Palmares was born free in the Palmares region of Brazil in the year 1655, the last of the military leaders of the Quilombo (Kimbundu word: "kilombo," of the North Mbundu Bantu language in Angola, meaning "warrior village or settlement") of Palmares. The Quilombo dos Palmares was a free society (free-born, maroons, or refugee slave), an old South American republic, which included the present-day Brazilian coastal state of Alagoas, Brazil. Today, Zumbi is known as one of the great historical leaders of Brazil. The event will highlight local artists and small business.”

Maracatu Pacífico is proud to be presenting some songs and rhythms from the maracatu naçãoes in Pernambuco, Brazil.
