Jerome Lewis: Woman’s Biggest Husband is the Moon
Jerome
has many years experience in the field, working with the Bayaka
hunter-gatherers in the Congo Basin in Central Africa. This is a
ground-breaking study of the central importance to women of the link
between their bodies and the Moon. Bayaka men are made aware that even
though, as husbands, they may have some sexual expectations, the Moon's
own demands come first! Women's solidarity is fundamental to the
unusually egalitarian dynamics of Bayaka society.

Ingrid
Lewis has spent many years with the Bayaka forest hunter-gatherers of
the Congo Basin. In this emotionally powerful practical workshop, she
will reveal what she has learned from these people about how to manage
social conflict, create harmony and ensure mental and physical
well-being, all through polyphonic singing. Everyone can do this.
Previous singing experience not required!
