In sociology, what is amalgamation?
Can you give me an example of amalgamation in United States history?
Yes, one example of amalgamation in United States history is the creation of African American culture. During the time of slavery, Africans were brought to America from various regions of Africa and forced to abandon their identities and cultures. Over time, different African cultural practices and traditions combined with those of Europeans and Native Americans to create a new and distinct African American culture.
