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 journey to the village of Umu Madhu, where the introduction of a modern table by a stranger named No Skin disrupts the harmony of a community that loved to celebrate with feasts. Discover how the villagers grapple with envy, pride, and disunity, leading to a dramatic conclusion that teaches a valuable lesson about unity and progress.Book: Talk that TalkEdited By: Linda Goss and Marian E.
