      Focusing on the intersection of the physical and spiritual, this analysis explores how African-derived religious traditions like Santería and Vodou serve as platforms for political and cultural resistance in the Caribbean. By examining works from notable authors, it highlights the complex roles women play within these marginalized communities, navigating religious, social, and political landscapes. The narratives challenge dominant patriarchal discourses and amplify marginalized voices, showcasing the transformative potential of these spiritual worldviews on concepts such as gender and nationhood.
