Garífuna Greeting, Barranco, Belize, 2001

"With reverence, joy, and a sense of duty women from one extended family wade out to meet returning fishing boats as part of a ritual called the dügü—the most sacred ceremony of the Garífuna religion."

—From "The Garífuna: Weaving a Future From a Tangled Past," September, 2001, National Geographic magazine
