Ahoy, my friends! Welcome aboard the Afro Tales podcast. Join your Griot, Amon Mazingo, as we embark on an enlightening journey through the rich narratives of Indigenous and African descent cultures in the Americas and the Caribbean. In this episode, we dive into the captivating creation myth of the Maidu people. In this episode, we explore the origins of the Earth, where darkness and water reigned until the Earth Initiate, Turtle, and the Father of the Secret Society embark on a journey to create land, light, and life. Discover how Turtle's daring dive for earth leads to the formation of the world, the creation of the first humans, and the introduction of pain and suffering through the trickster Coyote. This tale weaves together themes of creation, resilience, and the shared narratives that connect cultures across the globe. Don’t miss the delicious recipe for Banana Acorn Muffins that Chef shares, inspired by the rich elements of this story!
