@NadeShawt @nighttval Lol how? Punta, salsa, cumbia, merengue, rumba, Bomba, samba and bachata all have afro rooted influence. The only music in Latin America that isnt is all the Northern Mexican music.

@CanesEDIT @NadeShawt @nighttval Let's be real bruh, what makes those style of music move? What gives them their base? The rhythm. And it if weren't for those African roots in the rhythm, call and response and communal aspect, we would be devoid of what makes those types of music uniquely ours.

@CanesEDIT @NadeShawt @nighttval We can agree to disagree. Imo not celebrating the African rooted influences in all of our culture, not just music, & justifying it as "it was only part of the 'whole equation' of the culture" instead of as its own is an example of the lack convo regarding race in Latin America.
