Shrines of the Slave Trade: Diola Religion and Society in Precolonial Senegambia
Baum, Robert M. (Research Fellow, W. E. B. Du Bois Institute for African-American Research, Research Fellow, W. E. B. Du Bois Institute for African-American Research, Harvard University)
This text aims to reconstruct religious and social history of Diola communities in southern Senegal during the precolonial era, when Atlantic slave trade was at its height. It shows how leaders used religion to regulate the influence of the trade, and demonstrates how this changed religious life.
