This volume sets out a new paradigm that increases our understanding of African culture and the forces that led to its transformation during the period of the Atlantic slave trade and beyond, putting long due emphasis on the importance of Central African culture to the cultures of the United States, Brazil, and the Caribbean. Focusing on the Kongo/Angola culture zone, the book illustrates how African peoples re-shaped their cultural institutions as they interacted with Portuguese slave traders up to 1800, then follows Central Africans through all the regions where they were taken as slaves and captives.

- In-depth articles on the people and culture of central Africa from the first contact with Europeans

- Interdisciplinary and comparative; several of the contributors are anthropologists

- Includes chapters on slavery and black culture in the US and Brazil: the two countries with the largest populations of African descent in the Americas
