AR Project Profiles
The AR Profiles are a subset of participants from the larger Africana Religions Project that wanted to share their spiritual practice and journeys with a public audience. These 55 profiles highlight the rich diversity of practitioners of Africana religions within the larger project. Each profile tells the story of how their individual religious practice shows up in everyday life, how their practice has changed their life outlook, and advice for others considering a religious practice rooted in African diasporic faiths.
