History:

The African Diaspora refers to the dispersion of people of African descent who were forcibly brought to South America, The Caribbean, Spain, Italy, and the United States during the transatlantic slave trade. This dispersion has seen the on-going movement of millions of people, as well as cultures, technologies, and cosmologies, from the African continent to the Americas, Europe, the Indian Ocean basin, and Asia.  The African presence in these destinations transformed these host-lands and the continent, forged complex histories, and played a critical role in the making of the modern world. 

The majority of their ancestors originated from West Africa, particularly regions such as the Senegambia, Guinea Coast, and the Central West Coast, where enslaved individuals were taken from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds.

The modern African diaspora in the Caribbean and Latin America is spread across various countries and regions in these areas. Countries with significant Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Latin American populations include: Haiti, Jamaica, Cuba, Trinidad and Tobago, Brazil, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Venezuela and Mexico.
