EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a rare glimpse into the world of a female witch doctor from the Usumbura region of East Africa in 1929. The woman, dressed in traditional attire, exudes an air of mystery and wisdom as she practices her ancient healing arts. Her presence is both powerful and enigmatic, drawing viewers into a realm where magic and medicine intertwine.
The historical significance of this image cannot be overstated, offering a window into the diverse cultural practices that have shaped East African society for centuries. It serves as a reminder of the rich tapestry of traditions that exist beyond Western norms, shedding light on the complexities of race and identity in this region.
As we gaze upon this striking portrait, we are reminded of the importance of preserving and honoring indigenous knowledge systems that have been passed down through generations. The female witch doctor depicted here challenges stereotypes and preconceived notions about gender roles in spiritual practices, showcasing the strength and resilience of women in traditionally male-dominated fields.

This print is not just a snapshot in time; it is a testament to the enduring power of culture and tradition in shaping our understanding of the world around us.
