The accounts are about me, being born in *Ayti, a problematic homeland since European invasions, and my adventures living within its dimensions. It is also about my deep connection to a distant Motherland, Africa, that I still need to know but is more problematic than the latter after its European foray. And yet, its spiritual values are seeded in me. I endured the bewildering connection with my ancestors through their historical suffering, misfortune, spiritual awakening, or enlightenment; I shared their deepest primitive secrets, joyous moments, cultures, and undefinable accomplishments, which some labeled "superstition" and "mystical." I share their ignorance and failure. Among the few, I am one of the privileged. Part of the narrative details my experiences with a magical godmother.
