Review title: Oshun: Santeria and the Orisha of Love, Rivers and Sensuality
Product review: Frankly, I've not read this book, nor do I intend to. I was searching for information on the AFRICAN religious traditions. Oshun is an AFRICAN Orisha, so how the heck does she turn out to be a white woman on the cover of a book about Oshun??? I will reserve my time and money for the books that truly depict the ethnicity of the traditions and people they evolved from, not some white washed reinterpretation of an ancient AFRICAN gift to the world. As the saying goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words". The so called author of Oshun: Santeria and the Orisha of Love, Rivers and Sensuality should be ashamed of what appears to be yet another attempt to erase the cultural influences of African peoples and credit them to Europeans instead.
