[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tukuler: [QB] I seem to remember something about some W Afr ethny migrating to S Amer to offer their skill but can't remember specifics. Anybody else know anything about that? I sure appreciate any help with this. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by africurious: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [qb] Brasil and many South American countries received captives from west Central &, southern-Central Africa, not Yoruba. -Bakongos from Angola etc. Primarily Bantu speakers. https://vimeo.com/channels/afrolatinos/151897541 [/qb][/QUOTE]True, most of the slaves in s america did come from central Af but a whoooole lot of yorubas were taken to s amercia, especially Brazil. Yoruba religion is all over Brazil and Yoruba cuisine influence is prevalent in the north east. [/qb][/QUOTE]You're right, I actually meant to say [b][i]most[/i][/b] captives in S.America were from Central-west African Bantus. But nonetheless cultures from those regions were/are relatively suppressed in the US are they not? I've heard of knocking and kicking, but haven't really seen it (outside of modern reconstruction). Come to think of it, didn't Gullah people from the south carry a peculiar form of Islamic culture to the US? [/qb][/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
