It should be read with the same open-minded love with which it was written.--Alice Walker, author of <em>The Color Purple</em></strong><br/><br/>Since its original publication in 1985, <em>Jambalaya</em> has become a classic among Women's Spirituality Educators, practitioners of traditional Africana religions, environmental activists, and cultural creatives. A mix of memoir, spiritual teachings, and practices from Afro-American traditions such as Ifa/Orisha, and New Orleans Voudou, it offers a fascinating introduction to the world of nature-based spirituality, Goddess worship, and rituals from the African diaspora. More relevant today than it was 36 years ago, the wisdom of<em> Jambalaya </em>reconnects us to the natural and spiritual world, and the centuries-old traditions of African ancestors, whose voices echo through time, guiding us and blending with our own.</p><br/></p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A Marvelous Blend<br />of Memoir, Folk Wisdom, <br />and Afro-American Beliefs.</strong></p><p>Actress, storyteller, and priestess Luisah Teish dramatically re-creates centuries-old African-American traditions with music, memoir, and folk wisdom.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>""Jambalaya is a gift, open to all people, a gift of an ancient tradition, a gift of stories and celebrations, a gift of Teish's own history and voice, the voice of a strong, knowledgeable, and wise black woman." -- Starhawk, author of "Truth or Dare""A book of startling remembrances, revelations, directives, and imperatives, filled with the mysticism, wisdom, and common sense of the African religion of the Mother.
