'This is welcome introduction to current research and critical analysis of the religious traditions in Africa and the African diaspora. The contributors note the historic, philosophical, socio-cultural, moral, and legal implications of religions rooted in African realities and their rich and varied groundings in the diaspora. This book will be a valuable tool for many, especially students of the new African diaspora who have to welcome and appreciate learning and 'singing [the divine message and song] in a strange land.' - Elias Kifon Bongmba, Harry and Hazel Chair in Christian Theology, Professor of Religion, and President of the African Association for the Study of Religion, Rice University, USA
