The expression of afrocolombian identity in the work of ChocQuibTown
ABSTRACT This paper will examine the work of ChocQuibTown with regards to their approach to race and auto-determination, and how their music works both to shape and reflect the image of collective identity in the Chocoano region of Colombia. Looking at social, legislative and political ethnicity, it will address the various ways in which ethnicity can be defined, and how ChocQuibTown encompass each of these. It will then address the fusion of influences that come not only from within Colombia, but also from the African roots of the afrocolombian people, as well as from other pats of the African diaspora, which come together in the music to create a unique sound that speaks to and for the Afrocolombian community of Chocó.
