Jumping The Broom

Producers T. D. Jakes and Tracey E. Edmonds invite you to marry Sabrina Watson (Paula Patton, Precious) and Jason Taylor (Laz Alonso, Fast & Furious). Unfortunately, their family is the perfect recipe for disasters. The eaves on Mrs. Watson (Angela Bassett) coincided with Martha's Vineyard in her house, and Jason's Loretta Devine seemed quite inappropriate. When families gather to join Jason and Sabrina's wedding, it is clear that each side has its own tradition ... and its secret. When a residential area meets the city center, the truth will appear - there is only one problem left. Will the couple bear the hysterical and tragic trials of love, and will they skip the broom?

Ironically, most people gave up on broom after America's liberation. This was consistent with the last collapse of the Ghana Ashanti alliance in 1978 and the arrival of British customs. In the United States, especially the United States, the broom jumping from the slaves brought by the Asante region survived. This special Akan jump broom was accepted by other American African communities and used to strengthen marriage during community slavery.

When a black man is free to legally marry, the jumping broom loses practice. This custom survived in some communities, and even if the couple did not truly broom off, the phrase "to skip a broom" seemed to be "marriage". However, despite the small continuity of some rural areas in the United States (black and white community), African-American customs are stated after Alex Haley's announcement of Roots Danita Rountree Green, It is among African Americans.

Skip a broom or, in some cases, fly an imaginary African ceremony or a tradition still practiced in certain areas of West Africa. Jumping broom is not related to slavery. As a confirmation of their cultural heritage, slavery Africans were executed during North America slavery. The broom has symbolic and spiritual importance in African culture. The expression itself was created by our ancestors during slavery. Since slaves could not legally marry, they created their own ritual to commemorate their union. The fact that the broom jumped up is arguing that it came from African tribal marriage ceremony and represents the couple's new house.
