The Marimba and music Currulao from the Kmtyu of the Pacific Coast of colombia meets with the ancestral homeland of Senegal and the ancestral Balafon. In our studies, the Kmtyu of the Pacific Coast have theorized the Marimba is a descendant of the Balafon, and was reconstructed in the Choco rainforest when our ancestors were trafficked there. We also have a large ancestry from the ancient Mali empire in our Abibiman genepool, to include Senegambia. The marimba player is Hugo Candelario, from Guapi, Cauca, and one of the country's best marimba players.

On December 4th, 1969, the Black Panther Party’s Illinois Chairman Fred Hampton was murdered by police. But his story is about much more than the raid that took his life. The movement Hampton helped create was unique, and revolutionary.
In the late 1960s, Fred Hampton helped lead a coalition of activists, working across racial lines against a corrupt city government that threatened their communities. At the core of their work were social programs, including free breakfasts, health clinics, and legal aid. Hampton named the group the Rainbow Coalition. And because of their impact, it wasn’t long before they got the attention of the police and the FBI. What followed was an assassination, and a coverup.

Currulao is the main traditional genre of Abibifoɔ music out of the Southern Pacific Coast of 'colombia' and Northern Pacific Coast of 'ecuador'. This group is specifically from Timbiqui, Cauca, a Pacific Coastal town in the biogeographic Choco region. Timbiqui is also the name of the river where the community of Timbiqui is located. This song is about singing to the river asking for a safe passage, to let them go up the river, don't drown us (no me vayas a hogar), don't wet us (no me vayas a mojar), let me go up (dejame subi'). This is a continuation of evidence of our Kmtyu worldview regardless of location and colonial language. Reverence and respect for nature, the oceans, the rivers, and the source of life, water. This can be seen as a libation song for traveling up the Timbiqui river safely. The main instrument is the marimba, made from the palm trees in the Choco rainforest, and said to be a reconstructed descendant of the balafon made by Abibifoɔ in a new context. We carried Abibiman with us!
