Listen in as Ernest, Seth, and I reflect on a week in our work in Benin, where we attended the annual Voodoo Festival and had many fortuitous encounters which led to meetings with women with powerful stories to tell:
“[The Voodoo Festival] was such a rich display of culture and I love the sense of pride with which the people celebrated the whole event,” Ernest Ankomah
“I feel like I’ve come to a society that’s much closer to the land. It’s the closest you’ll get in terms of authenticity to an African culture,” Seth Avusuglo
“I’ve had my misconceptions about Voodoo totally blown with the reality that it’s an all-encompassing belief system that governs your way of life,” Sylvia Arthur
