Ahoy, my friends! Welcome aboard the Afro Tales podcast. Join your Griot, Amon Mazingo, as we embark on an enlightening journey through the rich narratives of Indigenous and African descent cultures in the Americas and the Caribbean. In this episode,we dive into two captivating stories featuring the clever Raven. The first tale, "Raven and Crayfish," showcases Raven's encounter with a cunning crayfish. The second story, "How Raven Stole Back the Light," reveals Raven's daring adventure to retrieve the sun and moon from the magician Tupalik, highlighting themes of cleverness, resilience, and the interconnectedness of folklore across cultures. Each narrative weaves a rich understanding of the trickster archetype that transcends boundaries.
