Abstract
In the mountains of Veracruz from 1570 to 1609, a young African-born Gaspar Yanga led resistance against the Spanish and forced recognition of his group's freedom, self-governance, and rights to the land. In the film "Imagine Freedom: Sounding Yanga's Cry across Gulf Shores" Dolores Flores-Silva and Keith Cartwright address the legacy of this Maroon community and its founder through interviews with residents of Yanga, Veracruz, and adjacent towns.
