Abstract:This article outlines the need for an interdisciplinary graduate program in Africana religions and public health at Hamline University in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The program would trace the colonial histories of these fields, train students through internships, and create partnerships between health officials and African diasporic communities in the Twin Cities that promote the insights of Africana ritual practices for hygiene, sanitation, and well-being.
