I think every single day still about the talk @daniandarrelljerry.bsky.social gave on the African Trickster. How the Trickster predates God or Satan. How the Trickster finds balance, and how colonialism seeks to disrupt that balance with binaries and shame.

A time was definitely had! Thanks for your support, Emily!
I gotta tell you, @daniandarrelljerry.bsky.social just gave the most engaging and fascinating and powerful talk on the African trickster hare, and I wish I could donate more to Kheprw - if you can, I hope you will: kheprw.org/donate
(Also I would listen to Danian any time; he's so wonderful.)
