Afro-Grenadian Erotic

Afro-Grenadians comprise approximately 82% of the Grenadian population per the 2011 Central Statistical Office census. The community descends from enslaved Africans brought to colonial Grenada between approximately 1650 (when French colonization began) and 1834 (British emancipation; Grenada passed from French to British control in 1763). Source populations were predominantly West African (Akan, Yoruba, Igbo) and West-Central African (Bantu-Kongo). The post-emancipation Afro-Grenadian population has remained demographically dominant. The country has maintained distinctive cultural traditions including the Grenada Carnival, soca music traditions, and substantial Caribbean-Anglophone cultural prominence. Note: Grenadian English Creole (Kwéyòl, similar to Saint Lucian and Dominican French Creoles) was historically widespread in some communities reflecting the pre-1763 French colonial cultural-linguistic legacy, though it has substantially declined in favor of English and Grenadian Creole English in the 20th-21st c.
