Spirituality & Motherhood Ep 44: Sara Makeba Daise Pt 1

In part 1 of this three-part series with Sara Makeba Daise of Geeche Gal Griot, we chat about growing up surrounded by elders, the need for grief rituals, and how special the South really is. 

Sara Makeba Daise aka Geechee Gal Griot (she/her) is a Black, queer, fifth-generation Gullah Geechee woman, Griot, Afrofuturist, space & time-traveler, dimension-hopper, gatekeeper, Cultural History Interpreter, Writer, Singer and Healer from Beaufort, SC. She works and plays at the intersections of ancestor elevation, intergenerational healing, Black queer erotics & desire, and African Diasporic rituals, history & culture. Her acclaimed 2020 essay, "Be Here Now: The South is a Portal", explores the South as a portal for Africana and Indigenous magic and ways of knowing. Sara offers spiritual and ancestral counseling and works as an advisor and consultant on various creative projects involving Gullah Geechee and Africana heritage and culture, including films, plays, albums, and literature.
