Stories from Black traditions in the new world. #readsoullit #afroamericanfolktales

AuthorDeniseTurney Thanks for sharing! Folktales often link to modern day traditions. Good to discover those unique links whether they impact habits, sayings, cooking traditions, etc. 11mo

I read too much Brer Rabbit as a kid and I'm always rooting for the trickster.
