Afrocultural Movement

Chagas is a leader in the Afrocultural Movement (Movimiento Cultural Afro) in Argentina. The movement was created on April 20, 1987, in part to honor the memory of José "Dolphin" Acosta Martinez, also known as José "Delfin."^[3] The movement attempts to address racism and anti-blackness in Buenos Aires.^[4]^[5]

On December 13, 1998 the movement sponsored a parade of candombe drums and dancers in front of the Cabildo de Buenos Aires as part of the Kalakán Güé Project Tribute to Memory to draw attention to the losses and disappearances of persons of African descent. Chagas was one of a group of mothers who participated in the event.^[3]
