The Portuguese, the French, the British, the Danes and the Dutch. The slave port of Ouidah in today’s Benin, 40 kilometers west of the city of Cotonou, was witness of one of the most serious crimes against humanity. Slave auctions took place there. Over three centuries the site saw the departure of millions of slaves to the Americas. Today, on the beach, the Door of No Return keeps the memories alive. Slave trade was more than simple human traffic. The symbolic rituals involved reveal the brutality of European slavers. They sought to dispossess Africans of their humanity. Slaves were forced to go around the Tree of Forgetfulness, nine times for men, seven times for woman, in order to forget their lives and cultures. Then, they were kept in the Zomai, barracks without light, before their final departure. Many died there. Detentions centers on the fringe of Europe seem a farce compared to them, but equally effective. In the borders of the US history repeats itself. Natives in Latin-America know all about it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTropical Diaspora #1 remembers. The compilation revisits this chapter of human cruelty, the horrible history of slave trade. But it isn’t just another piece of memory, a site for sorrow. The record transforms the Tree of Forgetfulness into a powerful network of remembrances. It gives voice to the daughters and sons of the slave trade. It is testimony of how African slaves kept their cultures and history alive giving birth to one of the most amazing cultural experiments of humankind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\"\u003eThe record is not only inspired but is dedicated to all the ancestors of the modern great Afro Diaspora that kept their cultures alive.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-1\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTropical Diaspora® Compilation Vol.1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe are featuring this artists and bands, click on it to read more:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/horoya\/\"\u003eHöröyá – Brazil (São Paulo)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/la-rueda\/\"\u003eLa Rueda – Colombia (Madrid)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/bantunagojeje\/\"\u003eBantunagojêje – Brazil (Berlin)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/ska-maria-pastora\/\"\u003eSka Maria Pastora – Brazil (Olinda)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/el-santo-golpe\/\"\u003eEl Santo Golpe – USA (California)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/bando\/\"\u003eBando – Puerto Rico (San Juan)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/los-made-in-barcelona\/\"\u003eMade In Barcelona – Barceloneta (Barcelona)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/abeokuta\/\"\u003eAbeokuta – Brazil (Recife)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/tdr-folium\/riosenti\"\u003eRiosentí – Germany (Mexico \/ Argentina)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOfficial release of\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ewill was 05.10.2019 \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ein Paris at the \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndy Label Market\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide Forgetfulness\u003cbr\u003e 1 • Höröyá • Griot Xamã • 7:58\u003cbr\u003e 2 • La Rueda • El Rurrú • 4:39\u003cbr\u003e 3 • Bantunagojêje • Sereno • 3:44\u003cbr\u003e 4 • Ska Maria Pastora • Fanfarra Dominicana • 3:14\u003cbr\u003e 5 • EL santo Golpe • El Ladrón • 3:37\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide No Return\u003cbr\u003e 1 • Bando • Cangrejo • 5:34\u003cbr\u003e 2 • Los Made In Barcelona • We are Street • 4:13\u003cbr\u003e 3 • Abeokuta • Mr.Job • 5:55\u003cbr\u003e 4 • Höröyá • Mandin’groove • 5:00\u003cbr\u003e 5 • Riosentí • Canción para Cariño • 3:44\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/n5EeDJ7yvQg\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-redactor-tag=\"strong\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tropical Diaspora Records®","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39785608052930,"sku":"TDR011","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0536\/8063\/6098\/files\/Cover_TDR011_K7_2000x_v1.png?v=1762140916","url":"https:\/\/www.tdrgo.co\/fr\/products\/copy-of-tropical-diaspora-1-by-various","provider":"Tropical Diaspora Records®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
