Yoruba NYC
Explore Yoruba NYC through Diasporic versions of the Orishas and drum, song, and dance traditions at: Alvin Ailey, Ronald K. Brown/Evidence, Bronx Music Hall, Caribbean Cultural Center African Diaspora Institute, and more. In the Americas, African Yoruba traditions became Gullah-Geechee Praise Houses, Caribbean Lucumí (Regla de Ocha), Puerto Rican Sanse, Trinidad Orisha and Spiritual Baptists, Brazilian Candomblé, and more. In many regions older African Diasporic traditions have largely been absorbed under the Yoruba banner. Àṣẹ!
