    Just like African Slaves invented cuban rumba, salsa... Dominican/ Haitian merengue, Puerto Rican bomba, Colombian Cumbia and so forth .. not to say the indigenous did not have any input. When just made it better 😊

    Hello, last night was doing my final exams. Spoke about the samba, tango and rumba culture a little. However, reading I became aware that the samba, tango and rumba came from the African slave origin yet in the tango, samba and rumba competitions around the world the skin colour of the competitors are not dark skin people but always a light complexion, hair's always straight no pionter as originally from the African slaves origin, the origin seems all erased. It seems confusing looking at the competitors, leaves a question mark to me? Can someone explain why?

      Roxanne Walcott...really not much to explain - Blacks/Africans invent it..white/europeans "discover" it and often times capitalize on it..too many examples to site and not only dance, music and culture!

    The message on screen says "Samba emerged in the early 19th century, in Rio de Janeiro." It's common sense that some form of Afro-Brazilian singing existed in Bahia from probably not too long after African slaves arrived in Brazil (perhaps something distinctly Afro-Brazilian as early as 1550?). Eventually, Afro-Brazilians made their way south to Rio, especially with the end of slavery, in 1888...but even a few years before that. While there was Afro-Brazilian singing and drumming in Bahia from early on, I'm not sure that there was _samba_ per se in Rio in 1820. By the early _20th century_ a distinct musical style was being to emerge in Rio that would eventually be called samba. Perhaps they meant to say early _20th_ century? I'm a musician more than a professional historian, so if anyone can clarify, I would appreciate it.

    I don't know why that music has that enthusiastic feel tune to me sometimes, I kind of wish it was invented in Florida instead kind of if the Africans there in Florida invent it and many of those would be in English if not brazil in portugese, but close to New Orleans.

      And IT has a spiritual Link too , from samba to sabath...this word from Kikongo ( language of creation) IS the only one in the ENTIRE world thats gives U the meanig of sabath , so Not only ( Like other languages do ) telling WHAT to do on that day ,but far more important,WHAT the NAME given to that day MEANS...Up to U now to Look for the meaning of SAMBA in kikongo,..keep dancing expressing yr " ki " ( Qi , chi tchi.,.) Like King Daouda(David) did AS the Ark of convenent came Back home and be blessed in the HOLY name of yisu masiah the " Kong of the kongs " 🙏🏿...
