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, explore the haunting tale of La Diables, a mysterious and feared figure from the Caribbean island of Martinique. In a land where the French ruled and Creole was spoken, discover how two young men, Kabenla and Ekoux, encounter a woman with a dark secret. As they navigate a world of folklore and fear, learn the lessons of caution and curiosity.
