Lánzate is a political and cultural festival for Latinx change makers, brought to you by Mijente.
Gente from the front lines of la lucha y el perreo come together at Lánzate for connection and entertainment. It is for Latinx and Chicanx people who seek to build social movement and community that is pro-Black, pro-LGBTQ, pro-worker, pro-immigrant, pro-planet and rooted in self determination.

WHY ATLANTA?
LÁNZATE IS A CRITICAL GATHERING FOR PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENTS IN THE UNITED STATES AND PUERTO RICO. LATINX PEOPLE ARE ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING DEMOGRAPHICS AND THE YOUNGEST ONE.
ATLANTA IS A CRITICAL BATTLEGROUND IN THE FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY AND GEORGIA IS A MAJOR SITE OF POTENTIAL MOBILIZATION FOR LATINX COMMUNITIES. LÁNZATE WILL BOLSTER EFFORTS TO MOBILIZE AND ORGANIZE LATINX FOLKS IN GEORGIA.
this year, we’re partnering with Georgia Latino Alliance for Human Rights (GLAHR), a community organization educating and organizing the Latino community in Georgia to defend and promote their civil and human rights.
