Answer:

Culture in general, especially in music.

Explanation:

Through out all the American continent the popular music reflects the history of slavery; without slavery there wouldn´t have been Samba & Bossa Nova in Brazil, Candombe in Uruguay, Reggae in Jamaica, Calypso in Trinidad, Cuban music and everything ranging from blues, gospel, rhythm & blues, ragtime, jazz, cool jazz, classic jazz, bebop, cubop, latin jazz, rock, rap, soul, funk and probably even more styles in the U.S. They all were developed with the helping hand of the slaves.

Most obviously is this the case with the world´s most famous North American style: jazz

Traditional African marriage is an advantage for men only, not women
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Hope this helps!:)

What is the central idea of this poem? O captain my captain
Slav-nsk [51]

The poem is an elegy to the speaker's recently deceased Captain, at once celebrating the safe and successful return of their ship and mourning the loss of its great leader. In the first stanza, the speaker expresses his relief that the ship has reached its home port at last and describes hearing people cheering. Despite the celebrations on land and the successful voyage, the speaker reveals that his Captain's dead body is lying on the deck. In the second stanza, the speaker implores the Captain to "rise up and hear the bells," wishing the dead man could witness the elation. Everyone adored the captain, and the speaker admits that his death feels like a horrible dream. In the final stanza, the speaker juxtaposes his feelings of mourning and pride.
