Colombian cultures

Colombian cultures
  
Colombian culture, as a part of the South American culture, is diverse and very colorful. Colombian culture bears the influences of several other cultures. Apart from the original and culture of the native people, there have been lots of other European races living in Colombia and all of them have colored the main culture of this South American countryColombia.

Owing to geography, Colombia contains five main natural regions namely, the Andes mountain ranges, the Caribbean Sea coastal region, the Pacific Ocean coastal region, the Llanos (plains) and the Amazon rain forest region. Colombia is located in the northwestern region of South America. This has led to a diversified Colombian culture. Moreover globalization and urbanization have changed the Colombian way of living.

Colombian culture is a store house of several other cultural influences. In the mainstream of Colombia culture there are influences of Spanish and African cultures also. The Spanish cultural influences have come because of the colonizers in this country. And the African culture indicates to the slave trading in this country as a part of the whole South America. The cultures of Colombia have different traits because of the regional differences also. This regional cultural influences can be divided into main three groups like the interior group, the countryside culture and the coastal regional cultural influences. 
 
Colombian culture is a sum total of several important things like the geographical location, its colonizers, the religious groups and many other things. These are all reflected in the language, daily lifestyle, religion and in many other aspects of Colombia life. The languages of this country have several distinctive accents. Like the Caribbean people here have accents that have affinity with the Cuba accent. Daily eating habit also reflects the influences of the Spanish and also the native food habit. Colombian culture has both the performing and the other forms of art as a very important of their culture. And in this field also Colombian culture bears its distinctive marks.

Coral poetry - Eighth grader

Human Family -  Poem by Maya Angelou

Click here to listen the poem https://soundcloud.com/yeison-arcadio-meneses-copete/sets/poems-maya-angelou-and-some-others

I note the obvious differences
in the human family.
Some of us are serious,
some thrive on comedy.

Some declare their lives are lived
as true profundity,
and others claim they really live
the real reality.

The variety of our skin tones
can confuse, bemuse, delight,
brown and pink and beige and purple,
tan and blue and white.

I've sailed upon the seven seas
and stopped in every land,
I've seen the wonders of the world
not yet one common man.

I know ten thousand women
called Jane and Mary Jane,
but I've not seen any two
who really were the same.

Mirror twins are different
although their features jibe,
and lovers think quite different thoughts
while lying side by side.

We love and lose in China,
we weep on England's moors,
and laugh and moan in Guinea,
and thrive on Spanish shores.
We seek success in Finland
are born and die in Maine.
In minor ways we differ,
 in major we're the same.

I note the obvious differences
between each sort and type,
but we are more alike, my friends,
than we are unalike.

We are more alike, my friends,
than we are unalike.

We are more alike, my friends,
than we are unalike.

Coral poetry Seventh grader - Equality

Equality - Poem by Maya Angelou
Click here for listening
https://soundcloud.com/yeison-arcadio-meneses-copete/sets/poems-maya-angelou-and-some-others
You declare you see me dimly
through a glass which will not shine,
though I stand before you boldly,
trim in rank and marking time.


You do own to hear me faintly
as a whisper out of range,
while my drums beat out the message
and the rhythms never change.

Equality, and I will be free.
Equality, and I will be free.

You announce my ways are wanton,
that I fly from man to man,
but if I'm just a shadow to you,
could you ever understand ?

We have lived a painful history,
we know the shameful past,
but I keep on marching forward,
and you keep on coming last.

Equality, and I will be free.
Equality, and I will be free.

Take the blinders from your vision,
take the padding from your ears,
and confess you've heard me crying,
and admit you've seen my tears.

Hear the tempo so compelling,
hear the blood throb in my veins.
Yes, my drums are beating nightly,
and the rhythms never change.

Equality, and I will be free.
Equality, and I will be free.
