The result of extensive research, this study, although centered on Cape Verde and Brazil, indicates that Africans, even though they were compulsorily transferred as slaves to the Americas, at no time accommodated themselves as subalterns; rather, they rose up and produced, tirelessly and constantly, surreptitious forms and ways of resisting, albeit under terribly adverse conditions; with this stance and intent, they inserted their culture through the pores of the dominant society, as they still continue to do, through their descendants: always aquilombados in their struggles, in search of the constantly denied social recognition, as they still position themselves today.
