“The Shimmy Club was a space for AfroArgentine people to celebrate the porteño carnival. It took place at Casa Suiza from the mid-1920s to the end of the 1970s. For eight days a year, this space opened its doors for the fellowship of AfroPorteño families. The space was rented out by Alfredo Núñez, Haydeé San Martin, and Pocho Núñez.” .Source: “el carnaval AfroPorteño en el shimmy club,” biblioteca de congreso Argentina, translated by @diasporadash #argentina # afroargentina # candombe # carnival
