The first new religion in the Caribbean since Rastafari, the Earth
People draw on West African sources, assert a renascent African
identity, and celebrate female creativity. They argue that Black
people are the guardians of a natural environment, which is
constantly under threat from European science. In this 1993 book,
Dr Littlewood, who is both a psychiatrist and a social
anthropologist, criticizes received ideas about pathology and
creativity. The founder's ideas emerged in her experience of
cerebral disease, and Dr Littlewood shows how the Earth People
reinterpret radical personal experiences to build a community.
While naturalistic and personalistic interpretations of human life
are both valid and necessary, neither can be reduced to the other.
