Dr. Bertin Louis, Associate Professor of Anthropology and African American & Africana Studies at the University of Kentucky and author of My Soul is in Haiti: Protestantism in the Haitian Diaspora of the Bahamas, will lecture on the development of religious habitus through embodied worship at a Haitian Protestant church. There, second-generation Haitians worship within a Black, Christian and anti-Haitian Bahamas. Adherent use of Haitian Protestant hymnody, liturgical dance and prayer reflects social processes of individual and collective self-remaking through embodied and linguistic practices. This creates a unique, hybrid Christian habitus which helps them negotiate cultural belonging.
