Listen "The Sacred Misunderstanding"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we step beyond the veil of perception and into the heart of misunderstood faith.
The Sacred Misunderstanding explores the deep roots of African spiritual traditions — practices of healing, reverence, and connection that predate colonisation and Western religion. What was once sacred became feared, renamed, and rewritten under the weight of Christianity popularity. But these traditions never truly vanished; they adapted, whispered through time, and lived on in the rituals, rhythms, and resilience of the African diaspora.
Featured music:
Sunday Morning Chant by FreeSound (4.36-6.33)
Prayer Hands by Wizard beats (6.34-8.12)
Boom by Dyalla (12.07-end)
