Batuque (Brazil)
Batuque (drumming) was a general term for various Afro-Brazilian practices in the 19th century, including music, dance, combat game and religion. ''Batuques'', or drumming ceremonies were an important cultural activity among the African population. These performance circles were a regular occurrence on Sunday evenings and holidays, drawing large crowds of enslaved Africans. Laws introduced in 1822 allowed police to shut down ''batuques''. Despite the police repression, the batuques persisted covertly at the town's outskirts or along the shoreline. Africans devised tactics to safeguard the batuques. They would scatter when the police approached and reconvene elsewhere to resume. In some cases, they responded to police repression with violence.

In Bahia, the batuque dance evolved into various forms of samba, whil ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
