“Children in the cities of West Africa are already cut off from the day-to-day life connected to spirit. This is because they live apart from the village. When they go to school, they don’t learn about spirit or work on their connection to it. They don’t learn about their traditions. They go to schools in order to learn things that aren’t spirit-based and to forget about their traditional ways.” page 18 Nana Sobonfu Somé
