Question

Why were maroon communities in Jamaica ideal for preserving African musical and cultural practices? As religious orders within plantation society, maroons were ideal for facilitating connections between Catholicism and Afro-diasporic religions such as Candomblé and Vodou. As de facto independent colonies governed by self-emancipated slaves, maroons offered a space where musicians of African heritage could practice African cultural practices without fear of reprisal from slaveowners or the possibility of mixture with outside influences. Due to the fact that maroons were some of the most densely populated urban communities in Jamaica, they offered a chance for Afro-descendent Jamaicans to exchange cultural practices at a rate far faster than would have been possible in rural contexts. None of the above All of the above
