Queen Nzinga was a warrior Queen from what is now Angola who fought against the Portuguese slave traders. Some of her people were captured but were able to keep their fighting skills and culture through the middle passage to Brazil. There they had to disguise their martial art as a dance creating what is now called Capoeria. Capoeria was a form of resistance for Africans and was officially banned by the government until fairly recently , Zumbi of Palmares led a free city of escaped Africans
