Queering Creole Spiritual Traditions (eBook, PDF)

Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Participation in African-Inspired Traditions in the Americas

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This fascinating book explains the place of gay, lesbian, and transgendered people at the heart of Creole religions. What are the practices and beliefs of Vodou, Candomble, and Santeria? Why are same-sex love and gender-crossing such important concepts to them? How have these religions affected Western art and music and poetry? Queering Creole Spiritual Traditions explores the wisdom of the African-derived religious traditions to answer these questions. It features detailed, intimate interviews with spiritual leaders who follow these faiths and with artists who have been influenced by them. It is illustrated with abundant photographs.
