The currency of power and pain
This article aims to unpack and analyse the historical manifestations of slavery and the material content of commodities employed during the transatlantic slave trade in the Gold Coast, Ghana, from around 1650–1900.

The analysis i…

Even though there are various practices in Hinduism, colour has been known to be closely related to the Hindu religion, representing the expression of faiths and beliefs. For example, many Hindu deities have specific colours associated with their attire, signifying their qualities. Hence, with specific reference to colour, this case stu…

With a specific focus on the Hindu community in eThekwini, South Africa, the case study employed a qualitative research method to investigate the roles and cultural associations of colour in Hindu religion, and how it has been adopted and integrated into the cultural practices. Two samples of population were selected using a purposive sampling technique: namely, 10 religious leaders fro…
