As Africans, it is almost a given that the land is an integral part of our spiritual identity but I want to know how. I want look specifically at sacred sites and how they correlate with the cosmology of our beliefs.

The reality is also that many of us live in urban areas and cities, this creates a different dynamic to the relationship between land and cultural spirituality, I would like to understand how we navigate this dynamic.

I spoke to Gogo Thato Tshukudu who is not only a Healer who carries vast knowledge in relation to the spiritual nature of land, as Operations Manager at South African National Parks, it is also literally her job to help to care for some of our most important sacred sites.
