Myths and Legends

Published on Apr 11th at 3:59am

The epic of Sundiata, the founder of the Mali empire, has everything - magical old women, evil magician kings, nice magician kings, and helpful buffaloes. The first part is like Mean Girls...if Mean Girls was set in 12th century Africa. But really, it's a fantastic tale of love, loss, and perseverance and I hope you like it.   The creature today has a surprise for you! It's her mule legs! Also she's going to eat you!   !---!
