Presented by Mambo Noli Obatinuké Davi.

Introducing Mambo Noli, author of Aziri Bosé: A New Afrikan Vodun and initiated Priestess of Vodun Aziri Bosé within the New Afrikan Vodun spiritual tradition. She is an Anthropologist, spiritual teacher, and community organizer whose work is deeply committed to archiving and honoring global Black cultural and spiritual systems, with a special focus on the lives, labor, and legacies of Black women, femmes, and indigenous liberation practices. 

​

Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, she studied Anthropology and African American Studies at Wright State University before beginning her professional journey as a community organizer, helping to shape what would become the Movement for Black Lives. Her organizing experience brought her face-to-face with the very systems she had long studied, and affirmed a powerful truth: that liberation must include spiritual healing and power.

In 2014, she became a devoted student of Iyalosa Olaomi Osunyemi Akalatundé, a renowned author, educator, and Priest of Orisha Osun for over 30 years. In 2017, Mambo Noli began offering community-centered spiritual services that combine her academic training and grassroots organizing.

​

Mambo is offering a lecture series rooted in her unique curriculum, Divine Femme Sci-Tech. This powerful framework explores African diasporic creation stories, indigenous Turtle Island wisdom, and spiritual technologies for personal and collective liberation through the lens of New Afrikan Vodun.
