Black Atlantic Religion - Tradition, Transnationalism, and Matriarchy in the Afro-Brazilian Candomble - J. Lorand Matory - Paperback Bog - Princeton
Brand: Princeton University Press
Description
Illuminates the mutual transformation of African and African-American cultures, highlighting the example of the Afro-Brazilian Candomble religion. This book contests the conviction that transnationalism is new and the long-held supposition that African culture endures in the Americas only among the poorest and most isolated of black populations.
