From enslavement to Emancipation to independence, the Afro-Caribbean community sought protection, healing, and justice from Obeah men and women, but when Obeah became a tool for resistance, it was outlawed, breaking the chain of transmission from one generation to the next. Could Obeah aid decolonization in the twenty-first century, and can its traditions be recovered?
Researched, written, and produced by Corinne Wieben, with original music by Purple Planet.
For more on the history of Obeah, see the Early Caribbean Digital Archive.
