Description
Music, Health, and Power offers an original, on-the-ground analysis of the role that music plays in promoting healthy communities in The Gambia. This book brings readers inside the world of kanyeleng fertility societies and HIV/AIDS support groups, where women use music to leverage stigma and marginality into new forms of power. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted over 13 years from 2006 to 2019, the author articulates a strengths-based framework for research on music and health that pushes beyond deficit narratives to emphasise the creativity and resilience of Gambian performers. Part of the SOAS Studies in Music series published by Routledge, this academic work combines cultural anthropology with music scholarship to explore how performance becomes a tool for community wellbeing and social empowerment.
