Students will learn about the various myths, gods and folklore found all over West Africa The topics covered will be the various West African gods, monsters and spirits from West African folklore, and some funny folk tales based in those mythologies. My class will be structured along the hierarchy of stories assigned to the various pantheons. For example, with a new area we will start with stories involving the gods, then later down to spirits, then down to mythical humans. This will give an idea of how the world was observed by the cultures that produced these stories. I will teach using a mixture of images and slides as well as discussion. My teaching style can be described as interactive. I will actively tell the stories in the style of an Igbo griot (storyteller) as that is how I was raised on the stories. Students listen to each story and give their commentary at the end of each story or discussion of a god and give their thoughts on what they think the point of the story would be. Learners will get to interact with me through discussion, slides and some lectures along with discussing the essence of some of these stories. No required knowledge, only the desire to learn about new mythologies The topics covered during the fall will be as follows. Month of September: Stories from Nigeria, featuring the Igbo, Hausa, & Yoruba collections of stories & mythical figures Month of October: Stories from Benin, featuring the Fon, Aja, Gun (pronounced Guu-une), & Bariba collections of stories & figures Month of November: Stories from Mali, featuring the Fulani, Songhai, Sarakole and Dogon collections of stories & figures Month of December: Stories from Togo, featuring the Ewe, Losso, Adele and Mamprusi collections of stories and mythical figures Class will reset in the Spring starting in January with the Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba again.

Students will learn about the various West African mythologies. These will range from the mythologies of the Igbo people to even the people of the ancient Songhai empire. The topic will cover their gods, their spirits, and even how some of the pantheons were even structured. Many of these stories told will also be parables in nature, stories that had life lessons, and for some stories that end with weird lessons, the context behind them will be explained.
