The answer to this question is varied depending on the plantation. It would be a very generalized and inaccurate statement to say either yes or no. Slave-owners each ran things differently. Some plantations were very strict on behavior and practices. This would allow very little room for any traditional culture to surface. Slaves were assimilated into whatever belief and culture system that their owners practiced whether willingly or forcefully. However, there are many counts of owners being far more lenient with their slaves. Allowing them to practice their religions and traditions so long as it did not interfere with duties and the ongoing routine of their owners.
