In her lecture, Tracey Hucks explored the religious expressions that transformed Cuban Santeria into a new religious expression among African Americans in the United States. This new tradition satisfied the group’s racial and nationalist leanings and eventually helped to place African Americans on a global religious schema alongside other Yoruba practitioners in Africa and the diaspora.
This event was co-sponsored by the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs and the Doyle Engaging Difference Program.
