West African Slave Trade Things that West Africans brought with them: Traditions of oral story telling Culture of songs in rituals Strong traditions of percussion and rhythm Dance

This is known as the African Diaspora: Communities around the world descended from the historic movement of African people

Where did the Diaspora go? How did it affect the new world? Geography of the Diaspora: Southern United States (1/7 of the slave trade) Caribbean (The Islands) Central America South America (North and East Coast) Impacts of the Diaspora on Musical Traditions: Call and Response (individual sings  audience repeats) Strong drumming and rhythm patterns in “American” music Story telling (i.e. Amer Blues, Mexican Corridos, Rap, etc)
