FILM: Yo no me llamo Ruben Blades (Ruben Blades is not my name) 

Abner Benaim / Argentina, Colombia, Panama / 2018 

Latin American icon Ruben Blades, whose “thinking man’s salsa” has earned him praise as the Bob Dylan of Latin America, was at the center of the New York Salsa revolution in the 1970’s. His socially charged lyrics and explosive rhythms brought Salsa music to an international audience. Blades has won 17 Grammys, acted in Hollywood, earned a law degree from Harvard and even run for President of his native Panama. The film will be introduced by Dr. Corinne Pubill and followed by a Q&A session
