    How many of y'all ever seen the Lion King? I didn't see until my oldest daughter was old enough to watch it. It's been 2 years now for me. I liked the story and saw the message in it from my first viewing. In May, Lion King Broadway will be coming to Las Vegas so my family and I are making preparations to attend. I recently went on Youtube to see some scenes from Lion King Broadway and I must admit I was quite impressed.

    On the next weeks, what I would like for us to do is an intensive study of the Lion King, it's relation to Sunjata, Shaka Zulu and Black people, as well as, its motif in African spiritual traditions.

    I want our discussion to be interactive - incorporating music, Youtube and other things.

    All on board please sign in with an "Ayibobo".

    Ayibobo is a greeting used among Vodouisants.
