AFRICAN MIGRATION IN ARGENTINA

Really fantastic video that answers some questions I’ve had about Senegalese people I’ve met here in Salta.

We’ve lived here about a year and a half and one rarely sees anyone with darker skin on the streets. Even dark-skinned tourists are extremely rare. So when I started seeing a group of Senegalese men in the market, I was surprised.

I’ve talked to some of the men in the market, once even asking how many people are here from Senegal. My answer. “Seven.”
