Afrodescendants

Afrodescendants are individuals of African descent who live outside the African continent. This term often refers to people in the Americas, Europe, and other regions who have ancestral roots in Africa, particularly stemming from the transatlantic slave trade. Afrodescendants contribute to diverse cultures, languages, and histories influenced by their African heritage. Their identities are shaped by the unique experiences and histories of diaspora communities, including issues of racism, cultural pride, and advocacy for social justice. The term seeks to highlight their shared heritage as well as their distinct cultural expressions and contributions in various societies.
