This book examines the intersections of gender and race in a liberation movement propelled by an African spiritual ethos and restores agency to the RastaWoman's subversive participation in the ritual known as Reasoning. It appeals to studies of religious transformation, resistance movements, gender and race theory and Caribbean history and culture.
