Our trip to Fatoumata Diawara’s concert in Uppsala ✨
A group of us hopped on the train from Stockholm and what followed was an evening we won’t forget.
Good conversations, new connections, laughter & dance. That’s what community feels like.
Thank you @uppsalakonsertkongress for the tickets & discounts. Representation matters, not just on stage, but in the audience and in the community. We see the effort, and we appreciate it. 🙏🏾

The Stockholm hub focuses on connecting diverse communities through workshops, conversations, and creative projects that strengthen solidarity and belonging.
