SUMMARY:Erê
DESCRIPTION:\nWe are pleased to announce the production of\, Erê.\n\n\n\nE
 rê is the youth consciousness of the "new one" in Candomble\, and the wor
 d comes from the Yoruba and means "to play". In this project\, the Praticu
 tucá brings to children audiences Black\, Indigenous and people of color 
 composers and authors from Brazil.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe\, as Brazilian artist
 s\, know how precious our art is but\, on the other hand\, we question how
  amazing composers and writers could be unknown&nbsp\;by some Brazilian al
 l around the World. We also recognize that the fact of being black\,&nbsp\
 ;indigenous&nbsp\;or people of colour makes it even harder to be in the me
 dia and spread our art. Adding to that we know how important it is to chil
 dren of Brazilian families\, who speak Portuguese as a heritage language\,
  recognize themselves and their families &nbsp\;at the Local tv and social
  media productions.&nbsp\;\n\n\n\nThis is how Erê was born\, as an arm of
  the Praticutucá project\, to honor\, respect and show the BIPOC Braziili
 an composers and writers to the&nbsp\;Brazilian kids living in Somerville.
  We truly believe that a city who respects the variety of their community 
 makes bonds with them and grows stronger.\n\n\n\nThe first 3 episodes are:
 \n\n\n\n\nAmoras (Blackberries) - With the book Amoras and songs Casa (HOm
 e) and Passarinhos (Birds) from the Brazilian rapper Emicida\;\n\n\n\nPela
  minha janela (Through my window) - With the book Pela minha Janela - Otá
 vio Junior and the Songs Favela - Tom Jobim and Rap da felicidade (Happin
 ess Rap)- Cidinho &amp\; Doca\n\n\n\nMeu crespo é de rainha (Happy to be 
 Nappy)  - With the book Meu crespo é de rainha - Bell Hooks\, translated
  by Nina Rizzi and the song Respeitem meus cabelos\, brancos (Respect my h
 air\, white people) - Chico César.\n\n\n\n\nErê videos will be hosted at
  the City of Somerville EdTV (Channel 15) and at the Praticutucá youtube 
 channel (www.youtube.com/praticutuca).\n\n\n\nThe Erê videos are created 
 by Rejane De Musis - Coordinator\, storyteller and singer\;&nbsp\; Ebinho 
 Cardoso - Music director\, audio and video editor\; and Ian De Musis - pia
 no.&nbsp\;\n
