African Latin Americans
Hi everyone! ![]()
In my quest to learn more about the diversity of cultures in Latin America, I am wondering what parts of Africa the African slaves in Latin America came from. So, what parts of Africa did the African slaves come from, and of what ethnic groups were they?

From the same places as the ones that were brought to the US. I don;t remember the name of the main port in Africa, but from there they would sail to different parts of the world in order to sell their cargo, not only the US.
The problem here in the US, is that today any black person coming from any Hispanic country is not African anymore, it is Hispanic!
:-D
