AFRO BRAZIL: The African Diaspora In BRAZIL

Join us for a dose of Brazilian black history! Did you know Brazil has the largest African diaspora population in the world outside of Africa? That's right! This stems from the Transatlantic Slave Trade whereby an estimated 4.9 million enslaved Africans were trafficked to Brazil... that’s nearly 40% of all slaves traded in the Transatlantic Slave Trade! That’s several times the number of enslaved Africans that were trafficked to the United States. Learn about slave resistance movements, Capoeira, Candomble and Samba in this chunky chapter of black history from Brazil!
