CatskinElla
Today we dive into a fairy-tale that is familiar and unfamiliar at the same time.
Today we dive into a fairy-tale that is familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. From the south, we are given a version of Cinderella that most will not understand. We will see a magic mirror, a magical Godmother, a magical dress, a prince, and the girl who connects them all. CatskinElla is a fun and lively version that incorporates some Indigenous and African motifs. I hope you spot them.
