INFORMATION ABOUT PANCOCOJAMS
This pancocojams blog was launched on August 29, 2011.

The mission of this blog is to showcase the music, dances, language practices, & customs of African Americans and of other people of Black descent throughout the world. 

Pancocojams focuses on a wide range of Black cultural topics to help raise the level of awareness of and information about those topics which often have been overlooked or given minimal attention online and off-line.

Pancocojams also focuses on children's rhymes, cheers, and singing games. Some of these recreational compositions that are featured on pancocojams may not have originated with Black people. However, other children's rhymes, cheers, and singing games that are showcased on pancocojams were/are created by or adapted by African Americans or by other Black people.

In addition to this content, this blog sometimes departs from its main mission by featuring posts about other socio-cultural topics that refer to other people and cultures in the United States and/or in other nations.
