RE: Cultural Heritage: The feast of Saint John in Chuao / Herencia Cultural: La fiesta de San Juan en Chuao

in GEMS4 years ago

San Juan is a very popular saint among the Afro-descendant families of my country, and although at first sight he is a Catholic representation, behind him a social and organizational framework of indigenous African and American roots is formed, today for these communities San Juan is a symbol of identity and pride of the Afro cultural heritage.
