To this we add the syncretic traditions of the American hemisphere, the spectacular Afro-Brazilian and Afro-Caribbean Carnival traditions who occupy a central place in defining their cultures and contributions to world culture and who compete for top prizes and students in the SF Carnaval parade. The conquerors could destroy most of the old world but the dances, costumes and songs live on in the hearts and spirit of the natives Within Carnaval San Francisco is the greatest Bolivian parade outside the Andes mountains and its continues to grow to six groups in 2007, the spirit they display is also their ancestors reaching back through the millennia. |
