weird to see more whites into banjo than african americans, since banjo is a black instrument
maybe one day, banjo will be in popular demand in the black community and create a genre based on banjo

so the Banjo vanished completely from the Caribbean? it probably got lost as others started to get more interested in other instruments
no Caribbean genre has Banjo (at least not that I know of), so I think it got lost in the process of when the Caribbean musical genres were being developed
music survives as long as the youth is involved because if they are not, then it gets lost and put in the past

i wonder what other African instruments got lost in the New World, im sure there are many
