You see, burning is what you do to a spirit that can’t be tamed. There are books full of stories of burning women. I wish yours wasn’t one of them.

White folks were not entirely wrong about the haunting either. If you were to walk down these streets, you might hear the faint sound of steel drum and boombox and chickadee and pigeon, or you might hear the chattering of ghost, the spirit of colonist Ashanti, warriors, slave holders, African groups, mythic creatures, and stories long since forgotten. White folks may call the Sahani, we know them to be the ancestors.
