I really enjoyed #TheWomanKing. #violadavis is so good in it. The movie brought to mind a book I read several years ago by #zoranealehurston called #Barracoon. She interviewed a former slave, Kossula who related his story of being captured by the Dahomey warriors, many of whom were women in 1860. I highly recommend the book although the Dahomey don’t come off as well as in the movie.
