about

Resiliencia is a collection of compositions inspired by stories of resilience Taína witnessed in interviews she conducted with women of color in various parts of the United states, Puerto Rico, and Canada over the course of several years. These stories, as well as her own, are born at the intersection of survival and reclamation of love and liberation. to learn more about the stories of resiliencia go to tainaasili.com
