Adopting a global vision for the study of Black religions, the
Africana Religions book series explores the rich diversity of
religious history and life among African and African-descended
people. It publishes research on African-derived religions of
Orisha devotion, Christianity, Islam, and other religious tradi-
tions that are part of the Africana world. The series emphasizes
the translocal nature of Africana religions across national,
regional, and hemispheric boundaries.
