          Manipulating the Sacred

          Manipulating the Sacred

          by Mikelle S. Omari-Tunkara

          Publication Date: October 2005

          She demonstrates how this manipulation provides Brazilian descendents of slaves with a sense of agency—with a link to their African heritage and a locus for resistance to the dominant Euro-Brazilian culture.
