on a small scale yes they do persist. but i guess that as with notable exceptions they've always been small scale cultures, they're doing as well as ever.

I disagree. Religion is not the only incursion on indigenous cultures. Technology of all types, from weapons to textiles to medicine; political and economic ideology, from socialism to communism to capitalism; and increased mobility of goods and people all have profound effects on all African cultures, even the most remote.
