Is a cleansing tradition for the widowed. Any woman whose husband dies must submit to sex with one of his male relatives.
In African culture this tradition enables the woman to be free (cleansed) of the spirit of her departed spouse.
Failure to comply prevents the departed’s soul from being released.
Is this not institutionalized rape by any other name?
