INTERCULTURAL RELATIONSHIPS

What kind of problems could arise from cultural differences when dating or marrying someone from different culture?

The most common problems when dating or marrying someone from a different culture are: don't have enough knowledge about each other’s customs, fight because of their families different points of view about a particular situation, the parents would not probably agree with that relationship, try to impose one's own culture over the couple's culture, etc.

Before starting a relationship with a person who belongs to a different culture, the best thing is trying to learn enough about the other culture to know and be prepared about what kind of things we would be able to do for the other person, and what things we would definitely not. This will avoid many misunderstandings.

PALENQUEROS AND ALVIN AILEY DANCE COMPANY

COMPARISON
Their music and dancing move them to still climb for their freedom and fight against exclusion. In their own particular way, both groups try to show or express their African folklore, rhythms and history.

CONTRAST
Palenqueros music and dance are more natural and autochthonous; their rhythms are more native and less elegant than the Alvin Ailey dance company's ones. Alvin Ailey Dance Company use more musical instruments, more designed customs and more choreography than Palenqueros in Colombia.
