Afrocubanismo was an artistic and social movement in black-themed Cuban culture with origins in the 1920s, as in works by the cultural anthropologist Fernando Ortiz. The Afrocubanismo movement focused on establishing the legitimacy of black identity in Cuban society, culture, and art. The movement developed in the interwar period when white intellectuals in Cuba acknowledged openly the significance of African culture in Cuba. Afro-Cuban artistic expressions helped integrate the marginalized black community into mainstream Cuban society and art. Since its inception, Afro-Cuban Humanities has emerged as a major area of collegiate studies, and Afrocubanismo's influences can be seen in Cuban literature, painting, music, theater, and sculpture.

  • Afrocubanismo é um movimento preto-temático da cultura cubana com origens na década de 1920. Um dos seus criadores foi Fernando Ortiz, etnomusicólogo e estudioso de cultura afro-cubana que idealizou a convergência dos aspectos culturais do indígena com os traços africanos. Muitos afro-cubanos apoiaram a Revolução Cubana no início. O movimento relaciona o período entre as duas grandes guerras do século XX para uma análise dos intelectuais cubanos deste período, em sua maioria de origens européia, em reconhecer abertamente o significado do africano na origem cubana.
