Vodou Q&A - Celebrating Bwa Kayiman
This online event commemorates the ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY of the film's release, bringing together the director, Dalian Adofo and cast member and co-writer; Queen Mother Dowoti Désìr.
For this final edition of the Vodou Q&A screenings, we will be joined by Patrick Delices, a Pan-African scholar, public intellectual, essayist and bibliophile with an extensive history in the study and research of Black studies.
The discussion focusses on the legacy of Black Lives Matter post George Floyd and other acts of violence visited on the global Black family, such as the assassination of Haitian president Jovenel Moïse and what can be done collectively to counter such injustices. The role of Cosmological alignments in the ceremony at Bwa Kayiman and the imperative it places on us to learn deeper about Vodou is explored as well, a very befitting show to round off the year of screenings.
Onwards to Victory!
AYIBOBO!!!
