Notes:
309 p., Drawing from Haitian Vodou and New Orleanian Voudou and from Cuban and South Floridian Santería, as well as from Afro-Baptist (Caribbean, Geechee, and Bahamian) models of encounters with otherness, this book reemplaces deep-southern texts within the counterclockwise ring-stepping of a long Afro-Atlantic modernity. Includes "Down to the Mire : Travels, Shouts & Fe Chauffe, Balanse, Swing : Saint Domingue Refugees in the Govi of New Orleans."
