Bigger Than Africa plot

When the slave boats docked in the Americas, Cuba and the Caribbean, hundreds of cultures and religions came with the Africans. But only one survived the plantations. To date, the most pronounced African culture remains that of the Yorùbá. West African culture dominated from Brazil to the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, and from the United States to Cuba. 'Bigger Than Africa' follows the Trans-Atlantic slave trade route from West Africa to six different countries. The makers investigate the reasons for the survival of this special culture.
