| Capoeira is music, poetry, party, diversion and a form of martial art
It was created by the Angolian slaves of Brazil. They pretended like they
were dancing when they practiced so that they wouldn't be punished. When
Brazil abolished slavery in 1888, migrating rural blacks brought capoeira
to the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Bahia, where it became a tool of streetfighters
and petty criminals. Capoeira was intensely persecuted up until the first
decades of the 20th century but has become a regulated sport. Here are links to information (history, attack movements, music) on Capoeira in Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Brasilia, California, Washington and more. |
