SUMMARY:Honoring the Orishas: An Exploration of Afro-Caribbean Mythologies and How They Still Influence Spiritual Practices
DESCRIPTION:Afro-Caribbean spiritual traditions are rich in lore and include a cast of deities with complicated backstories and personalities – as well as rituals to honor and curry their favor – that rival the Greco-Roman pantheon of gods and demigods we’re most familiar with in the United States. In Miami\, where the migration patterns of many Caribbean peoples have intersected and settled throughout history\, these spiritual traditions are known by various names: Santeria or Regla de Osha (Cuba); Voudoun (Haiti); Obeah (Jamaica); and Candomble (Brazil). These traditions\, though they vary from country to country\, are all descended from Yoruba (Western Africa/Nigeria)\, Kongo (South-Central Africa)\, Fon (West Africa)\, and Ashanti (West Africa) spiritual practices\, brought to the region by enslaved people and sustained in the “New World\,” often by cloaking them with Catholic iconography and worldviews. From generation to generation\, these ritual observances have flourished and adapted in ways unique to shifting geographies\, cultures\, and the passage of time. Now\, there is a return to recognizably West-Central African roots as modern practitioners no longer feel the need to hide these observances. In this engaging conversation\, experts in various traditions will share the stories of the Orishas and the lwa deities – who they are and what they do – to introduce\, or deepen\, our understanding of rituals practiced widely throughout the Caribbean and diaspora. Moderated by Florida International University’s Jeff Gonzalez\, assistant teaching professor of religious studies and associate dean\, Steven J. Green School of International and Public Affairs. \n  \nPresented as part of the 2024 NEA Big Read Miami.

SUMMARY:2024 NEA Big Read Keynote: Madeline Miller in conversation with George O’Connor
DESCRIPTION:Author MADELINE MILLER will deliver the 2024 NEA Big Read Miami keynote address\, followed by a conversation with author and illustrator GEORGE O’CONNOR on the themes found in the book\, including the retelling of myths and the persistence of thousand-year old tales. \n \nMiller has been a force in bringing mythology to the masses with her bestselling novels Song of Achilles and Circe. O’Connor has created what is essentially a modern-day D’Aulaires with his bestselling middle-grade graphic novel series\, Olympians. Together\, they possess the Midas touch when it comes to retelling Greek mythology for a modern age. These stories persist after thousands of years because their themes are universal and still as true as ever. However\, most of the stories we have come to know have alternate versions as recorded by various historians. In this keynote talk\, Miller and O’Connor will discuss various themes found in Circe\, with a focus on the persistence of mythology and how perspective changes a story. \n  \nPresented in partnership with Pennington Library as part of the 2024 NEA Big Read Miami.
