Abakuá Masquerade Performance

An Abakuá masquerade performance captures the rich heritage of the Afro-Cuban people, highlighting the resiliency of African traditions which continue to thrive not only on the Island, but throughout the African Diaspora. Despite centuries and an ocean of separation, the African secret societies Ekpe and Okonko, introduced into the Caribbean by Efik and Igbo captives, continue to flourish in Cuba to this day.#igbohistory#igbohistory2015
