Shows that African people have been agents of their own religious, ritual, and theological formation. This book examines the African-derived and African-centered traditions in historical Jamaica: Myal, Obeah, Native Baptist, Revival/Zion, Kumina, and Rastafari, and draws on them to forge a womanist liberation theology for the Caribbean.
