Walter Hernández: dialogical approach to music and community radio

Abstract

The article explores the work and life experience of the musician and community radio activist, Walter Hernández Romero Índigo, and proposes a linked analysis between his personal story about his process as an artist in the pursuit of a multiple and demanding concept of the Caribbean as a space of creative resistance, and the representation of this conception in practices of dialogical learning from community radio and collective musical creation. It concludes by acknowledging Hernández’s contribution to the investigation of Afro-Caribbean culture and communication.
