‘Africans’, as previously stated is historically inaccurate, as not all black people come from Africa. Africa is also not a homogenous culture and lumping all blacks together is a racist viewpoint. This is changed to a more accepted umbrella term, ‘blacks’. As in the “black community”.
Line 1:
'''Cumbia''' refers to a number of musical rhythm and folk dance traditions of [[Latin America]], generally involving musical and cultural elements from Amerindians, Africans enslaved during colonial times and Europeans. Examples include:
 
* [[Cumbia (Colombia)|Colombian cumbia]], is a musical rhythm and traditional folk dance from [[Colombia]]. It has contents of three cultural aspects, indigenous, Africanblacks and to a lesser extent, Spanish, being the result of the long and intense miscegenation between these cultures during the [[Conquest]] and the [[Colony]].
* [[Cumbia (Panama)|Panamanian cumbia]], a Panamanian folk dance and musical genre, developed by blacks enslaved during colonial times and later syncretized with Amerindian and European cultural elements.
