Forced migration of captive Africans to the New World resulted in the displacement of millions of individuals from their native lands and communities. As a consequence, a new culture emerged known as the African diaspora, which is characterized by the blending and preservation of African cultural elements with influences from the various destinations where Africans were forcibly taken.
Enslaved Africans brought with them diverse cultural practices, languages, religions, and artistic expressions, which were combined and adapted to new circumstances in the New World. Despite the efforts of slaveholders to erase African cultural traditions and assimilate enslaved Africans into European culture, many aspects of African heritage persisted and influenced the creation of a new hybrid culture.
In addition to this, the transatlantic slave trade resulted in Africans from different regions and ethnic groups being mixed together in the New World. This mixing of diverse African cultures further contributed to the formation of a new culture within the African diaspora.
Therefore, forced migration directly led to the creation of a new culture by bringing together and combining African cultural elements, fostering the formation of an African diaspora, and allowing for the preservation and adaptation of African cultural practices in the face of oppressive circumstances.
