Rituals of Resistance: African Atlantic Religion in Kongo and the Lowcountry South in the Era of Slavery
Jason R. Young
Explores the religious and ritual practices that linked West-Central Africa with the Lowcountry region of Georgia and South Carolina during the era of slavery. These two sites mirror the historical trajectory of the transatlantic slave trade which, for centuries, transplanted Kongolese captives to the Lowcountry through Charleston and Savannah.
