PALENQUE

The typy of music and dancing in palenque is similar to the one we saw in the alvin aley music company video, I´m sure this is because of their roots, both come from Africa,  A continent with one of the most strong cultures all over the world. It´s population have suffers many years of slavery in all of the parts they were taken to. This has influence a lot their culture and the way they express their feelings in dancing and singing.The difference might be in the region they were, in America things were different from Colombia.

Here, the "Mestizaje" contributed to decrease a little bit the racism but none of this happened in the US, that´s a reason why we could apreciated in the video their desire to be free.
