{SPEAKER name="Audience Member #1"}
Approximately, what is the geographical area that the Seminoles are spread out in? Could you elaborate on that a little bit?
{SILENCE}
[00:43:57]
{SPEAKER name="Presenter #1"}
Well, I'll tell you, I'm only familiar with the area that I'm in. Now, I understand there's some in, still in Florida.
[00:44:06]
Ok, the Oklahoma bunch it's quite a few of them and, like, some of them are here and everwheres but they have the largest group that I know of of Black Seminoles there.
[00:44:19]
We have only about 200 mixed breeds in Nacimento Mexico and they almost all bred out they almost all pure Mexicans a lot of them.
[00:44:32]
And then in Brackerville area we have a few and a very few in Del Rio so I say in the Brackerville and Del Rio area, there's only around 60 to 75 but when we have a ceremony or celebration of such we have sometimes three or four hundred people that come in.
[00:44:52]
{SPEAKER name="Presenter #2"}
Yeah, I did mention that one group went, instead of going west went east to the Bahamas. and they'll be here.
[00:45:01]
Another group even went to Cuba, when they were leaving Florida, but we have no information whatsoever about that group.

{SPEAKER name="Audience Member #2"}
What about the music that you have in your community where you come from?
[00:45:19]
{SPEAKER name="Presenter #1"}
Well basically it's English, but we have Hispanic music too.
[00:45:25]
So we dance a lot of Hispanic music, so we dance both kinds.
[00:45:30]
My wife hears this up here and she says it's my heritage, it sounds good, let's dance.
