Abstract

There has been much debate over the origins of African culture in the United States and the extent to which African retentions have been preserved and readapted according to the American diasporic conditions under slavery, forced labour, and racial discrimination. In this light, the present paper questions about whether the Africans in the New World continued to be Africans only in colour or whether any substantial elements of Africa became part of their lives in the New world. The paper also attempts to consider the extent to which the culture of Africa was transplanted and preserved in the New World.
