The city of Santa Bárbara d'Oeste, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, was the home of many Americans from the South of the USA, after the end of the Civil War, in the second half of the XIX Century.

This party in the video, called "Festa dos Confederados" (Confederate Party), is a time to remember the ancestors and to honor the old traditions.

No século 19, depois da Guerra Civil nos EUA (qdo 13 estados do sul se rebelaram e queriam a criaçao dum país independente, e perderam, lógico), muitas famílias de lá migraram pra Santa Bárbara d'Oeste - SP.

Até hoje existem descendentes destas famílias, que organizam uma festa de homenagem aos americanos, uma vez por ano. Essa festa acontece num cemitério onde os americanos eram enterrados na época, e reune gente de vários lugares do Brasil. Vejam aí, é algo único no país.

  • This must be the Deeeeeeeep South

  • @182511419139208 no, is the southeast of Brazil (the most rich region of Brazil.)

  • @pauloap I know. The deep south here means the southern most part like Louisiana and Mississippi. I exaggerated the deep because Brazil is so far south it is in a different hemisphere.

  • @182511419139208 yes, i realized that after my coment...ahahah :D
