Tengo Casi 500 Aņos/I Have Been Here Almost 500 Years: The African Presence in Central America

The second part of two exhibitions by photographer Tony Gleaton examines aspects of the African diaspora in Central America. Gleaton's photographs focus on individuals living in the small, modest, coastal communities of Belize, Honduras, Guatamala, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Panama raising questions which explore historical and sociological development of racial identity among these Afro-Latino populations.
