Throughout the several hundred years after slavery, there has been a continued rift or disconnection between African Americans and Africans. Most African Americans are descendants of enslaved Africans that were transported to the US during the trans-Atlantic slave trades. Since African Americans and Africans are descended from the same rooted African culture, it is reasonable to expect that they would adapt and co-exist in harmony; however, there is tension between the two groups. Compared to other races that live in America, the African American community does not display the same level of cultural connection and pride toward Africa that other races such as Latinos, Asians and Europeans display toward their homelands.
