There’s not a lot of religious diversity in the Dominican Republic, and this can affect us as volunteers, especially those of us who don’t identify as Christian.
In this episode, a Jew, a Buddhist, and an atheist talk about what life is like serving as a religious minority in the Dominican Republic.
This episode also features a song in a language called Ladino (aka Judeo-Spanish) and music from a Gaga ceremony (aka Voodoo) that I witnessed here in the Dominican Republic. The pic: A bit of a mural from a temple in a batey.
