ABSTRACT

This chapter disrupts academic prose for a creative turn toward the poetic and the mystical. I imaginatively give expression to the Black Feminist Divine to articulate an alternative history and mythology while providing a narrative of the role of Ezili Dantor during the Haitian Revolution. This writing integrates history, myths, literature, film, and art to create a genealogy of Black feminist divinity that uses the Haitian Revolution as a transatlantic backdrop.
