Hermana Fox & Hermano Coyote

Ahoy, my friends! Welcome aboard the Afro Tales podcast. Join me as we explore the tales that grew from the people of Indigenous and African descent in the Americas and the Caribbean. In this episode, we unravel the story of Hermano Zora and Hermano Coyote. Sister Fox, ever the trickster, has been stealing chickens from Don Perez's henhouse. To catch her, Don Perez creates a wax figure, but Sister Fox's cleverness knows no bounds. When Coyote, driven by hunger and rivalry, gets entangled in her schemes, a series of trickery and revenge unfolds. From sticky wax figures to illusory cheeses, discover how Sister Fox outsmarts her cousin time and again, leading to a fiery and fatal conclusion for the hapless Coyote.
