Summary:"This interdisciplinary study of Black women's travel bridges religious, literary, and Black studies to demonstrate the role of the sacred in their movements and practices of freedom. Spirit Deep explores the radical spiritual practices of Black women across a wide range of texts-biblical narrative, spiritual autobiography, travel narrative, and film. In addition to the narrative of Hagar, texts considered include those by Zilpha Elaw, Amanda Berry Smith, and Nancy Prince as well as the films of Julie Dash and Saidiya Hartman"--
