The Atlantic slave trade caused havoc on the cultures and political states of Africa and led to the forced migration of millions of Africans to the Americas. Africans brought with them their histories and cultures–philosophies, languages, political structures, and religious and artistic expressions. Many African societies and those they created in the Americas had their system of self-defense or martial arts. In Africa, there were and still are hundreds of fighting styles that emphasized skill, technique, and intelligence over brute force. One of the martial arts that sprang from the connection between Africa and the Americas is capoeira angola, which is still played in Brazil and around the world today. This coloring book introduces young children to the story of Capoeira Angola using over 30 original illustrations, promoting brain development through colors, shapes, interpretations, and imagined stories
