Sa culture métissée
The history of the settlement of Reunion explains the miscegenation and the different cultural identities which are present in the society today.
We are tempted to say that Reunion is a model of intercultural and inter-religious tolerance: Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Evangelists, live together with their various cults and ceremonies.
On the school benches and within the same families, the faces of black, white, mixed live side by side from childhood.
The local society is composed of: Creoles, Cafres, Malbars, Yabs, Zoreils, Zarabs, Chinese, Comorians. This cross-section is felt and reflected in the arts, especially in music, with the sega and maloya.
