About me
My name is Rito Joseph, self-taught, guest speaker and tour guide. I seek to gather culture, history, arts, and music on a single platform. I provide a unique way for people to deepen their knowledge of the Afro-descendant community and learn more about its ancestors.
During my talks, presentations, workshops and tours, I want to educate anyone interested in learning about the omitted or hidden parts of history, especially those who wish to bring a positive change in their community.
