      Durante la colonización el primer ritmo negro conocido en las Américas se llama FANDANGO popular en México y toda Sudamérica. En el CASO COLOMBIANO dió origen al bullerengue, al mapalé y al currulao PERO NO A LA CUMBIA.
      La CUMBIA nació en México entre 1949-1950, sus creadores son el mexicano Rafael de Paz y su Orquesta, el mexicano Tony Camargo y el colombiano Luis Carlos Meyer. LA CUMBIA es una fusión del PORRO colombiana, la PUYA colombiana y del Ritmo de la Gaita y de otros ritmos afrocubanos populares en México durante la época de oro del cine mexicano 1936-1960. Especialmente en el llamado CINE DE RUMBERAS de 1940-1950 donde las actrices Ninón Sevilla, Yolanda Montes "Tongolele" y Lilia Prado fueron al menos tres de las principales exponentes de como nació en MEXICO el ritmo de la CUMBIA.

    Don't let Spanish and white Europeans tell you your History and culture. Africans died and suffered to keep this culture alive.

      Cumbia is the result of a cultural and racial mix between Africans, Amerindians and Spaniards.

    What Africans came to Columbia? The slaves that the slave trade left for Mexico to keep for their slaves?
    Cumbia is not an African dance, I believe it originated in Puerto Rico. The Samba, Mambo, Merenge . When Perez Prado was discovered by White Travelers they Brought Perez to Perform in Los Angeles. He Performed one of his Mambo songs, mostly instrumental. Perez Prado was the creator of these sounds back in late 40's. He became an over night sensation, all the American people took dance lessons learning to Mambo, Chacha. Many dances after this were because of the introduction to Perez prados talent. The twist, probably Elvis famous rolling of the hips, bebob and so many others such as the Cumbia.

      There were Africans brought directly to Columbia. There are Afro-Colombians.
      It’s established by many that cumbia is a mix of indigenous and African dance. I’m not just saying that - you can easily look up the history of cumbia.
      The other dances you also mention like samba also have African origin as well. Puerto Rico has plenty of African descendent people as well but something like samba isn’t from Puerto Rico - it’s from Brazil by Afro-Brazilians. Puerto Rico also has an culturally African dance called Bomba.
      The Twist that I know was popularized by Chubby Checker who was a Black American musician that has roots in Black American culture.

      ​ @bboicrazy8 It was popularized by Afro-Columbians that doesn't mean it came from Africa. The music is most similar to Indigenous music and the dance is likely connected to Spanish Fandango.
