About this listen
Today’s episode explores mystical power, magic, witchcraft and sorcery in African traditional religions.
Across many African societies, people believe the universe is filled with a living, dynamic power that can protect, heal, harm or destroy. This power is not seen as fantasy; it is woven into farming, family life, illness, business – even into how people explain accidents and everyday misfortunes.
This episode will walk through vivid village stories, then unpack how African thinkers describe mystical power, good and evil magic, witchcraft and sorcery – and why these ideas matter for understanding contemporary Africa.
