Clay figurines of Zimbabwe, lake Chad, and Uganda. Queenly crowns and female drums, wooden ancestor icons and masks; dancers, weavers, women’s art in clay, calabash, mudcloth, murals, and baskets; harpists from around Africa, izangoma and rainmakers, and female warriors, liberators and liberationists.
