4.3. Garifuna Heritage in Central America with Arnol Guity Martinez

You are now listening to Ritmos Negros! In this episode, we discuss everything about the Garifuna community, Blackness in Honduras, and Afro-Caribbean rhythms in Central America. The Garifuna (Gah-Ri-Fu-nah) culture is a mixture of Arawak Indian, and West African that was formed in the island of St. Vincent and the Grenadines and later migrated to Central America.
