Orisha Journeys: the Role of Travel in the Birth of Yorùbá-Atlantic Religions 1
Arch. de Sc. soc. des Rel., 2002, 117 (janvier-mars) 17-36 Peter F. COHEN ORISHA JOURNEYS: THE ROLE OF TRAVEL IN THE BIRTH OF YORÙBÁ-ATLANTIC RELIGIONS 1 Introduction 2 In recent years the array of Orisha 3 traditions associated withtheYorùbá- speaking peoples of West Africa has largely broken free of the category of “Afri- can traditional religion” and begun to gain recognition as a nascent world religion in its own right. While Orisha religions are today both trans-national and pan-eth- nic, they are nonetheless the historical precipitate of the actions and interactions of particular individuals. At their human epicenter are the hundreds of thousands of Yorùbá-speaking people who left their country during the first half of the 19th cen- tury in one of the most brutal processes of insertion into the world economy under- gone by any people anywhere; the Atlantic slave trade. While the journey of the Middle Passage is well known, other journeys under- taken freely by Africans during the period of the slave trade – in a variety of direc- tions, for a multiplicity of reasons, often at great expense, and sometimes at great personal risk – are less so. These voyages culminated in a veritable transmigration involving thousands of Yorùbá-speaking people and several points on both sides of 1 Paper presented at the 1999 meeting of the Société Internationale de la Sociologie des Religions. This article was originally prepared in 1999. Since then, an impressive amount of literature has been published on the subject, which only serves to strengthen our case. A great deal of new of theoretical work on the African Diaspora in terms of trans-national networks and mutual exchanges has not so much challenged our arguments as diminished their novelty. -
The Formation of African Identities in the Americas: Spiritual “Ethnicity”
THE FORMATION OF AFRICAN IDENTITIES IN THE AMERICAS: SPIRITUAL “ETHNICITY” Ivor L. Miller African Diaspora Studies Program, DePaul University ABSTRACT From the sixteenth century onward, various spiritual traditions were carried by enslaved Africans to the Caribbean and the Americas, where their bearers restruc- tured them by adapting to the economic, political, and social realities of the slave regimes. In Brazil, Cuba, Haiti, Trinidad, and other cultural zones, Africans and their descendants were able to reconstruct fundamental concepts and elements of their homeland material and spiritual cultures while adding new features to these mod- els. Just as we can speak of Anglo-American, Iberian-American, or Franco-Amer- ican culture—instead of speaking of a monolithic Black or an African American culture, or of an abstract Afro-Cuban culture—we can discuss Kongo-American, Calabarí-American, or Yorùbá-American cultures. Being inclusive, these African- derived cultural systems, perpetuated in most cases through ritual-kinship lineag- es established by Africans, have for some time been practiced by people of all her- itages, and in many cases become unofficial symbols of the particular nation-state in which they reside, even while resisting allegiance to that state and its dominant mythologies. “No nation now but the imagination.” Derek Walcott1 in a linear paradigm, the study of transatlantic history is a study of progress; progress being a condition requiring adaptation to Euro-American norms. The assimilation of Africans enslaved in the Americas entailed a process of several generations, exemplified by this scenario from Argentina: “When the African na- tions declined beginning in the mid-nineteenth century with the deaths of the last generation of people born in Africa, Afro-Argentineans began to form mutual aid societies. -

A Medley of Cultures: Louisiana History at the Cabildo
A Medley of Cultures: Louisiana History at the Cabildo Chapter 1 Introduction This book is the result of research conducted for an exhibition on Louisiana history prepared by the Louisiana State Museum and presented within the walls of the historic Spanish Cabildo, constructed in the 1790s. All the words written for the exhibition script would not fit on those walls, however, so these pages augment that text. The exhibition presents a chronological and thematic view of Louisiana history from early contact between American Indians and Europeans through the era of Reconstruction. One of the main themes is the long history of ethnic and racial diversity that shaped Louisiana. Thus, the exhibition—and this book—are heavily social and economic, rather than political, in their subject matter. They incorporate the findings of the "new" social history to examine the everyday lives of "common folk" rather than concentrate solely upon the historical markers of "great white men." In this work I chose a topical, rather than a chronological, approach to Louisiana's history. Each chapter focuses on a particular subject such as recreation and leisure, disease and death, ethnicity and race, or education. In addition, individual chapters look at three major events in Louisiana history: the Battle of New Orleans, the Civil War, and Reconstruction. Organization by topic allows the reader to peruse the entire work or look in depth only at subjects of special interest. For readers interested in learning even more about a particular topic, a list of additional readings follows each chapter. Before we journey into the social and economic past of Louisiana, let us look briefly at the state's political history. -

The Influence of Yoruba Religion and Gastronomy on the Yoruba Diaspora of Cuba and Brazil: a Transnational Analysis
The Influence of Yoruba Religion and Gastronomy on the Yoruba Diaspora of Cuba and Brazil: A Transnational Analysis Maryam Ogunbiyi TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin December 8, 2016 Omoniyi Afolabi, Ph.D. Department of African & African Diaspora Studies Supervising Professor Michael R. Anderson, Ph.D. Director in the Department of International Relations and Global Studies Second Reader Ogunbiyi 2 ABSTRACT Author: Maryam Ogunbiyi Title: The Influence of Yoruba Religion and Gastronomy on the Yoruba Diaspora of Cuba and Brazil: A Transnational Analysis Supervising Professor: Omoniyi Afolabi, Ph.D. Second Reader: Michael R. Anderson, Ph.D. The forced integration of the Yoruba into the Atlantic World has led to gastronomic and religious influences on the diaspora in Cuba and Brazil. Both nations are linguistically different but the combined diaspora of Cuba and Brazil have been influenced by the cultural preservation of Yoruba norms transposed in Latin America via the trans-Atlantic slave trade. The implication of this assertion is that Yoruba influence is not limited by borders; rather, the influence of the Yoruba ethnic group is transnational. The cultural manifestation of the Yoruba is found in the religious and gastronomic practices of their diaspora in Cuba and Brazil.

The enslaved Yoruba were brought to the New World through the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. They were taken from their homes, family, language, and religion and brought to countries like Cuba to provide free labor to growing agricultural markets that benefited European colonizers of the Americas. The Yoruba would hold on to their religion, but in order to keep it alive, they would have to make it into a new religion.
