but WHY is it that afro cubans and afro brassillians do a better job at preserving their african heritage than the black in america?

I am not sure about Cuba, but in Brazil African slaves often formed communities called <i>quilombos</i>. They were able to preserve their heritage through these communities and families. With American slaves, especially in the south, groups were far smaller and limited just to a plantation--where they could not practice traditions.

What do they call a "real" African from an area like New Zealand, and he/she happens to be white and they come to stay in a America?

Excellent vid except for the "broken" comment. I am separated from my mexican heritage and from my Indian tribal heritage but I don't feel broken. The best thing about this country is that it is possible to start fresh and thrive and prosper. Frankly, starting a new heritage as African Americans is totally viable.
