"Where Black is Brown: The African Diaspora in Mexico” was developed by Dr. Toni-Mokjaetji Humber following a 2003 research sabbatical and subsequent journeys to Mexico. The exhibition furthers the understanding of African influence and contributions in the Americas and to foster greater understanding among African American, Chicano/Latinx, and Indigenous communities about their historical connections. Dr. Toni-Mokjaetji Humber was a longtime educator and pioneering researcher. She passed away in 2023 after a battle with lymphoma, however, her life and legacy live on through her exhibition and other important academic works.
