Guys, there’s a new TV Show on Netflix about an Afro-Colombian witch! The show is called Siempre Bruja (Always a Witch)

 I just learned about this via Broadly: 

When CW announced its Charmed reboot this summer, the network billed it as a multicultural reimagining of the show with three Latinx actresses at its center. Turns out that wasn’t actually true—only one of the three leads is of Hispanic descent, according to the Mary Sue.

That’s where Netflix’s new show Siempre Bruja comes in. The Caracol Televisión-produced series features a host of Latinx talent and is only the second ever Colombian original series for the streaming giant. The genre-blending historical drama follows the story of Carmen, a 19-year-old Afro-Colombian slave and witch who travels through time from the 17th century to the present-day Colombian city of Cartagena in a desperate attempt to rescue her loved one. It stars Colombian actress Angely Gaviria, last seen in Pambelé, a biopic about boxing champion Antonio Cervantes Reyes, Barranquilla-born YouTuber and musician Dylan Fuentes, and telenovela actress Valeria Emiliani.
