Her exploration of ritual music associated with divination across the island, her focus on transatlantic religious dialogues between Nigeria and Cuba, her emphasis on the contested nature of religious orthodoxy, and her close attention to the struggles of women all represent major contributions to existing scholarship.” * Robin Moore, The University of Texas at Austin *\u003cbr\u003e“Meadows’s years of research and solid scholarship shed new light on the fast-moving \u003ci\u003enigeriano \u003c\/i\u003ereligious movement in Cuba.
