Welcome to the blog of Rae Grillo-Abuah, where we delve into the heart of African history, culture, and spirituality. Explore insightful articles, personal reflections, and updates on my latest work. Join me as we reclaim, restore, and celebrate the rich tapestry of our heritage.

Reclaiming what was ours
There are stories that refuse silence — histories buried yet breathing beneath the dust of distortion. Reclaiming African History: Distortion, Erasure, and the Struggle for Recognition and the Yoruba Pantheon was born from that insistence. It is not only a book; it is a reclamation of voice, of spirit, of truth long denied.

Told through borrowed tongues
Africa’s story has too often been told through borrowed tongues — reinterpreted, renamed, and reshaped to fit someone else’s vision. In these pages, I sought to peel back those layers, to return history to its rightful custodians, and to honour the Yoruba pantheon as both witness and wisdom.

The scholarly and the spiritual
This work bridges the scholarly and the spiritual — where theology meets ancestry, and where memory becomes resistance. It is an offering to those who still feel the pull of forgotten names, to those who sense that our past is not lost but waiting to be remembered.
Reclaiming african history
To reclaim is to restore — and in restoring, we become whole again. Reclaiming African History is available now on Amazon.
