Studies related to slavery but also to the contribution of Africans to American culture and population, for more than two decades, have allowed progress in the knowledge of these issues that, far from being secondary and anecdotal, point to a better knowledge of the social conditions that, in the Americas, they allowed the accumulation of capital. Despite the brutality of the slave system, the works have shown many aspects of the African community in America, precisely in Chile. In the case of this country, they received during the colonial era a large contingent of slaves from Argentina, Peru, etc ... this people was liberated and became a metis of the servile yoke in order to be visible. Then, after a long time they will be forced to hide you so as not to be punished. This is how they moved away from public spaces and big cities to become invisible. Today, they have struggled with many aspects of culture such as groupings, music produced by people deprived of liberty or subaltern, rhythms, songs and dances. These are elements that allowed the invisibility of the black population in Chile. So, in this article, the purpose is to know and analyze the process of disappearance and reappearance of Afro-descendants in Chile. The objective is to show how the process of disappearance and reappearance of the Afro-descendant population in Chile has been.
