Ahoy, my friends! Welcome aboard the Afro Tales podcast. Join me as we explore the tales that grew from the people of Indigenous and African descent in the Americas and the Caribbean. In this episode, we dive into an assortment of intriguing stories featuring the cunning Anansi, the clever Mongoose, and the fierce Tiger. Discover how Anansi's trickery unfolds in various scenarios, from deceiving Mongoose out of a cow to outwitting Tiger with magic stools.
