Résumé

Growing up, I felt disconnected from my African roots since there was virtually nothing in literature, mainstream media, or the entertainment industry that referenced the rich history and culture that exists there. I grew weary of reading and watching the mythos of other cultures constantly on display, so I searched for stories from my ancestors. Join me on this journey of discovery:Discover the thunderous power of Shango, the Yoruba god of lightning, the nurturing embrace of Yemoja, the mother of all waters, and the cunning mischief of Eshu and Anansi.
Meet the fierce warrior queen Nzinga Mbande, whose story defies colonial power, and explore how the powerful deities of Africa have shaped cultures and inspired generations. Beyond the Nile not only uncovers ancient African myths but also highlights their influence on modern culture, including the rise of Afrofuturism and global icons like Wakanda. Richly illustrated and filled with insightful narratives, this book is an invitation to explore the vibrant spiritual traditions and timeless wisdom of Africa.
Whether you are a lover of mythology, a history enthusiast, or simply curious about Africa's hidden stories, Beyond the Nile will take you on a journey into the heart of the continent's legendary past-a journey that celebrates the myths, resilience, and enduring spirit of African people.
