The book explores the religious history of the Anlo-Ewe peoples in southeastern Ghana, focusing on the 'Fofie' rituals that reflect their engagement with a painful slave-holding past. It examines how the Anlo's discomfort with their historical agency in slavery led to practices like ancestor veneration and spirit possession. The narrative highlights the impact of Christianity, modernization, and trans-Atlantic connections on these rituals, revealing how moral perceptions of slavery evolved throughout the twentieth century amidst significant social and religious changes.
