The three concentric rings and spirals is representative of the three colors: red, the blood of our ancestors; blue, the sea and rivers that dominate our culture and aquatic life we connect with; and last green, the earth and how we have created our homes with the natural landscape.

The MESO-American pyramid is symbolic of the last American empire, the Haitian or Arawak empire.

The Red feather is our creativeness and ingenuity while the blue feather is representative of the healing process of our people and our connection to the natural fauna around us. 

Our mission is to revitalize our community by reteaching our history as it relates to our dispersal Historically during indigenous slavery from years 1494CE-1863CE via materials.

The Goal of the Revitalization

Bringing Our People Back Together

Our goal is simple but profound: to reunite our dispersed family, strengthen the bonds between us, and provide a space free from the prejudice and biases that have long divided us.

Together, we will share stories, preserve traditions, and rebuild the Arawak identity across the Americas.
