Textbook
This prompt needs to be no less than 230-words, and no more than 300 this time. You must respond to one classmate, as well (with 150 words). I am picky about word count, so please don't write less than the required amount.
Also, include two quotes from the readings. Please write in the topic "Questions for Week 4," if you have any questions. There is one prompt this week: What is the symbolic, social, and spiritual significance of henna art rituals in Morocco? (Hint: think of who uses henna, when they use it, & how/why they us it.) What is baraka and how does it relate to henna? To write this prompt, you can use what you've read from the Kapchan article. Also, think about what you've read from pages 86-89 in the main textbook.
