Bibliography
Lydia Cabrera
Lydia Cabrera is a legendary Cuban ethnographer and author on AfroCuban religions. She left behind an extensive bibliography, mostly published in Miami by Coleccion Chichereku en el Exilio . Unfortunately none of it seems to have been translated into English. Lydia did extensive work in Matanzas, including the small towns south of the city of Matanzas itself, places such as Perico and Union de Reyes. Her works are much prized both in Cuba and in the US.

african diasporic traditions in Trinidad, focusing on Shango Baptists and Spiritual Baptists.
http://www.raceandhistory.com/historicalviews/africanspirit.htm
By KIM JOHNSON
Born Again In Living Waters
T heirs are the vibrations shared by most Trinidadians, everyone who can move to the music of David Rudder or Superblue. And although they are not represented in the population censuses, the Spiritual Baptists or Shouters are estimated to number anywhere between 100 to 300 thousand.
"Listen to the early steelband with the grumbler and listen to a Baptist doption," says musicologist Mervyn Williams, who has written a dissertation on the church's music, "and you wonder who influence who. It's the same Trinidad folk element cutting through steelband and religion."
And it's not only Trinidad and Brazil, as David Rudder sings, argues Archbishop Raymond Oba Douglas of the Mount Prisgah Spiritual Baptist Archdiocese International Ltd. "In Guyana they're called 'Jordanites' because immersion started at the Jordan; in St Vincent it's the Shakers; in Jamaica the Revivalists." But, explains Archbishop Douglas, apart from a few differences they have all the same general traits: "entertainment" of the Holy Spirit, "shaking" and talking in tongues. It is the Christianity of Africans in the New World.
For instance, baptism in "living waters" is a reinterpretation of an African worship of water spirits, as is the elaborate water dance of the Trinidadian dragon masquerade. Most Shouter rituals and invocations involve the sprinkling of water. "When I go to the sea I see my mother and when I ring my bell I see her rise from the sea," says Mother Superior Elaine Griffith, interim Archbishop of the National Evangelical Spiritual Baptist (NESB) faith, a woman of both great proportions and spiritual presence.

Students will work on a scholarly or creative project to be shared in a culminating exhibit or roundtable. Participants will receive round trip air travel, a modest stipend, a meal card, appropriate supplies, and access to the UM library, computer labs, and other facilities; they will be housed on the UM campus. ELIGIBILITY Upper class undergraduates or the equivalent, and recent graduates (within two years of the BA).

Home Major Faculty Events Resources Requirements for Major and Minor The program in African and African Diaspora studies offers students an interdisciplinary course of study that may lead to either a major or a minor. Both the major and the minor are designed to enable students a considerable degree of freedom in the choice of electives, and they both offer ample avenues for students interested in pursuing independent research and/or internship experiences. The program is particularly interested in encouraging the study of less commonly taught languages such as Yoruba, Kiswahili, Arabic, and Haitian Creole. The program also encourages students to pursue study abroad opportunities in Africa and its Diaspora and advises them in all matter pertaining to such study. The option to write an honors theses is available to students who are in the University's honors program as well as to those who seek honors with the ADST program. What can I do with an ADST Major or Minor? An ADST degree is an ideal liberal arts degree that affords students a wide range of career options. Here are a few examples:
