Sango Gunmi: The Emergence of Yoruba Tradition in the African-American Community
One night only! Join us for a night of untold African-American history featuring Orisa song and dance.
Written by Essence magazine best-selling author Karen E. Quinones Miller and directed by David Wright, founder of the Orisha Tales Repertory Theatre, "Sango Gunmi: The Emergence of Yoruba Tradition in the African-American Community" tells the story of Marjorie Quinones (Sango Gunmi) -- the first African-American initiated as a Yoruba priest on North American soil -- and of the early history and struggles of African-Americans to reclaim this aspect of their cultural heritage.
