Srananmangs, any tips: I would like to research the impact and retention of African culture in Suriname. I am very curious about the role of the Maroon societies in the preservation of indigenous African culture. My initial research (which I have just begun) leads me to believe that they established unique societies expressing an adaptation to local conditions of various African socio cultural patterns, as well as assimilated strong Amerindian influences into their culture. I would like to know if you can network me to any elders, historians, and keepers of the culture - especially regarding music, dance, folk art, spirituality, divination, etc. - who can share some information with me.
