Abstract
The focus of this chapter will not engage the largely unresolved ethnographic debate. The aim rather is to engage in rethinking the Eucharist in African Christianity within the context of rituals of resistance. It could be argued that there can be no ritual performance in most African ethnic groups without engaging in such oppositional behaviour, however much ethnographers might want to interpret it.-
