About Dr. Tope
Research & Education
The author powerfully weaves together literature of Yoruba peoples from multiple contexts, spanning the African continent and its diaspora, including the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Europe. With its strong emphasis on equity and the usefulness of spirituality in contexts of schooling, education, teaching and learning, The Souls of Yoruba Folk is ideal for critical and multicultural education courses
