DESSNUTS2040 You are right, trujillo persecuted for 30 years our african manifestation of 89% of the population, and even got to twist the history in his favor and europeans. thanks good we killed that motherfucker.
Afro Dominican music is a well-kept secret thanks to a long and complicated relationship between Dominicans and their strong African heritage, further nuanced by the 31-year dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo, who actively persecuted the countrys African cultural manifestations in an obsessive quest to Europeanize the country. Even though Afro-Dominican music is played every day, it is rarely discussed in public its almost a taboo.
a lot of people is confuse this music you can find anywere in the country is not of especific place
