This is the first collection of essays to analyze intersectional
religious and cultural practices surrounding the deity Yemoja. In
Afro-Atlantic traditions, Yemoja is associated with motherhood,
women, the arts, and the family. This book reveals how Yemoja
traditions are negotiating gender, sexuality, and cultural
identities in bold ways that emphasize the shifting beliefs and
cultural practices of contemporary times. Contributors come from a
wide range of fields religious studies, art history, literature,
and anthropology and focus on the central concern of how different
religious communities explore issues of race, gender, and sexuality
through religious practice and discourse. The volume adds the
voices of religious practitioners and artists to those of scholars
to engage in conversations about how Latino/a and African diaspora
religions respond creatively to a history of colonization."
