Hello
Does anybody know how slaves were able to make music, because I read somewhere that slaveowners stripped slaves of their culture and even mixed them with people who spoke different languages so they couldn't communicate.. So I wonder why slaveowners would me 'nice' enough to let them make music.
Greetings from a dutch girl
