What is the assimilation Of African-Americans?

Assimilation is when one group of people gives up their culture for another dominant culture. During this process, they lose their culture. Though African Americans were forced to relinquish most of their culture when brought to America (by slave masters and also by being strewn about on plantations with Africans who were from different countries, speaking different languages & having different cultures), Africans were able to keep a lot of their heritage alive. Consider spirituals, where they were intertwined with English words (incl. Ebonics) and African tunes. Also consider African characteristics, i.e., music, worship/praise, dance, family, etc. There are a lot of African that African Americans have retained, but don't even know!
