Description

Ripped from motherland and family, ethnically mixed to quell the potential of uprisings, and brutalized by regimes of hard labour, the heart - the spirit - of Africa did not stop beating in the New World. Rather, it survived and has re-emerged; changed by contacts with new cultures and environments, but still part of the continuum of African tradition: an African Re-Genesis.
