African
Influence on Latino Culture (1226)
When Africans were forced onto slave ships, they
were not only dropped off in the United
States, but in the Caribbean, Central and
South Americas, and Mexico. We examine the
African ancestry of Latinos and how it has
influenced their culture. A significant
part of the music, religion and other aspects
can be traced back to Africa, thus creating
a common cultural bond between Latinos and
African Americans.
