O Grupo Cultural AfroReggae (GCAR) surgiu em janeiro de 1993, inicialmente em torno do jornal Afro Reggae Notícias - um veículo de informação que visava à valorização e a divulgação da cultura negra, voltado sobretudo para jovens ligados em ritmos como reggae, soul, hip-hop, etc. Foi inaugurado em 1993 na favela de Vigário Geral o primeiro Núcleo Comunitário de Cultura, iniciando assim o desenvolvimento de projetos sociais. Em pouco tempo, esse núcleo se consolidou a partir das primeiras oficinas - que foram dança, percussão, reciclagem de lixo, futebol e capoeira - e preparou o terreno para novas empreitadas. Apesar de toda a diversidade de atividades, a música tem sido em Vigário Geral o melhor instrumento para atrair os jovens a participar do GCAR. O sucesso obtido com a Banda AfroReggae, tanto artístico quanto como modelo de projeto social, fez com que outros jovens quisessem percorrer o mesmo caminho. Nessa época já se tinha bem claro o objetivo a ser alcançado, e que pode ser definido pela missão institucional que tem nos pautado até hoje: oferecer uma formação cultural e artística para jovens moradores de favelas de modo que eles tivessem meios de construir suas cidadanias e com isto pudessem escapar do caminho do narcotráfico e do subemprego, transformando-se também em multiplicadores para outros jovens. Com o passar do tempo os projetos foram se aperfeiçoando, a instituição foi crescendo e os resultados começaram a aparecer. Em 1997, o GCAR inaugurou o Centro Cultural AfroReggae Vigário Legal, um marco na nossa história. Com um espaço físico bem estruturado dentro da comunidade, o trabalho pôde se desenvolver com maior qualidade e planejamento, e com isto foi possível tornar esta iniciativa uma referência de prática sociocultural na cidade do Rio de Janeiro.

The Afro Reggae Cultural Group (CARG) emerged in January 1993, initially around the Afro Reggae News newspaper - a vehicle of information aimed at the dissemination and appreciation of black culture, aimed especially at young people connected in rhythms like reggae, soul, hip -hop, etc. It was inaugurated in 1993 in the slums of the first Vicar General Community Center for Culture, thus initiating the development of social projects. Before long, this core was consolidated from the first workshops - they were dancing, percussion, recycling, soccer and capoeira - and paved the way for new ventures. Despite the diversity of activities, music has been Vicar General the best tool to attract young people to participate in the CARG. The success achieved with the Afro Reggae band, both artistic and social project as a model, has made other young people wanted to travel the same path. At that time it had the clear objective to be achieved, and can be defined by institutional mission that has guided us to this day: deliver a cultural and artistic education to young slum dwellers so that they had to construct their citizenship and with it could escape the path of drug trafficking and underemployment, also as multipliers for other young people. Over time the designs have improved, the institution grew and the results began to appear. In 1997, the CARG inaugurated the Vicar Cool Afro Reggae Cultural Center, a landmark in our history. With a well structured physical space within the community, the work could develop higher quality and planning, and it was possible to make this initiative a reference to sociocultural practice in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
