Diaspora Film Series: Healing Roots: A Conversation on Wellness in the African Diaspora with Julia Zackery Jordan and Kamille Gentles-Peart

Healing Roots tells the tale of how Bajan (Barbadian) women use native plants and herbs—bush medicine as it is termed in Barbados—to help heal the body and the nation. It speaks to how these women continue African culture through their use of plants and asks us to think about what is lost on the island as it progresses toward the status of a developed country. Presented by Africana Studies, European Languages and Literatures (French), and Media Studies in celebration of Black History Month.
