Studies of African-derived religious traditions have generally
focused on their retention of African elements. This emphasis, says
Dianne Stewart, slights the ways in which communities in the
African diaspora have created and formed new religious meaning. In
this fieldwork-based study Stewart shows that African people have
been agents of their own religious, ritual, and theological
formation. She examines the African-derived and African-centered
traditions in historical and contemporary Jamaica: Myal, Obeah,
Native Baptist, Revival/Zion, Kumina, and Rastafari, and draws on
them to forge a new womanist liberation theology for the Caribbean.
