🇻🇪AFRO VENEZUELANS BLACK VENEZUELANS | AFRO DIASPORA - Documentary - Video

Hola mi gente! Welcome back to the Afro-Latin series! I'm your host, Shaddy.
On behalf of Black History Month, we delve into the history of Afro-Venezuelans. Discussing race, culture, music, religion and tradition.
Afro-Venezuelans/Afrovenezolanos are Venezuelans of African descent. Afro-Venezuelans are mostly descendants of enslaved Africans brought to the Western Hemisphere during the Atlantic slave trade. This term also sometimes refers to the combining of African and other cultural elements found in Venezuelan society such as the arts, traditions, music, religion, race, and language
In the 2011 census, 3.6% of Venezuelans self-identified as Afro-Venezuelan. Similar to Brazil, in Venezuela, people tend to be categorized by how they look: "Moreno", "negro", "bachaco", etc. rather than by their actual ancestry.
Encyclopedia Britannica estimates that at least one-tenth of Venezuelans (3 million) have pure Sub-Saharan African ancestry. The Brilliant Maps calculates that Afro-descendants comprise 4% of the Venezuelan population. Alas, many Venezuelans are mixed with African ancestry.
