*Vodou en Vogue* is such an important book & we are lucky we got to spend time with @dr_zaku to talk about fashion, spirits, dreams, & sexuality. My students learned so much about ethics, fieldwork, + the challenges of ethnography. The charisma & storytelling were off the charts!
U kno u a bada$$ scholar when you are the distinguished 2024 Armstrong Lecturer w/in the Dep of Religion at @kcollege AND I got to speak at my twin’s @emoprofessor “Ethnography of Religion” class! Her students were incredibly bright, insightful and they DRANK #vodoenvogue!!

Today, two years after publication, four years after I signed my contract in the middle of chemo, I got to hold PAINTED POMEGRANATES & NEEDLEPOINT RABBIS at the @UNC_Press booth in the #SBLAAR2022 book hall. Friends, I cried. Catharsis is real. @WhereRelLives #AmRel
