from Dis a Fi Mi History Podcast: Explore Caribbean Ancestry & Culture · host Wendy Aris

Verona Spence-Adofo is the co-founder of Ancestral Voices, an educational initiative dedicated to documenting and disseminating research-based knowledge about African sacred cosmologies, their spiritual philosophies, and practices. In this episode, we delve into the significance of **Caribbean history** and its impact on **family genealogy** through the lens of Anansi stories. These tales not only entertain but also serve as cultural artifacts that preserve and communicate the rich heritage of Caribbean people.
