MW Dihya al Kahina: A Free and Noble Witch

Story behind the image:

"During a visit to the Kabyle region in 2006, I photographed graffiti painted on a town’s whitewashed walls that featured various historical figures adopted by the Amazigh movement. Busts of three figures done by an unidentified graffiti artist included a woman on the left of a geometric design and two men on its right. Underneath each bust was a name written in Tifinagh, an ancient Berber script dating back to the fourth century BCE that was used to write administrative texts and funerary inscriptions across northern Africa prior to use of Arabic. Amazigh activists use individual Tifinagh letters as identity markers, writing slogans on public spaces, and, in this case, a graffiti artist wrote the word “Dihya” underneath this female figure referring to the Kahina’s actual name."

About Missing Witches

Amy Torok and Risa Dickens produce the Missing Witches Podcast. We do every aspect from research to recording, it is a DIY labour of love and craft. Missing Witches is entirely member-supported, and getting to know the members of our Coven has been the most fun, electrifying, unexpectedly radical part of the project.

These days the Missing Witches Coven gathers in our private, online coven circle to offer each other collaborative courses in ritual, weaving, divination, and more; we organize writing groups and witchy book clubs; and we gather on the Full and New Moon from all over the world.

Our coven includes solitary practitioners, community leaders, techno pagans, crones, baby witches, neuroqueers, and folks who hug trees and have just been looking for their people.

Our coven is trans-inclusive, anti-racist, feminist, pro-science, anti-ableist, and full of love.

If that sounds like your people, come find out more. Please know that we've been missing YOU.

Missing Witches Trailer

Missing Witches is a research based, feminist occult storytelling project. It’s sort of like Disgraceland, or Lore, except each episode is about a real witch. It tells some pretty crazy magical stories about women, and emphasizes women of colour. Missing Witches is co-produced by Risa Dickens and Amy Torok. We are releasing a total of 12 episodes for Season One: Sundays, starting on the Sept 23 Full Moon and ending on Oct 28, we’ll release 6 episodes that are scripted, research-based stories of actual badass witches. Wednesdays, from Sept 26th to Halloween, we’re releasing “Witches Found” episodes – interviews and spotlights on practicing, contemporary witches in our community – healers, shaman, and a dominatrix who makes a passionate case for sex work as magic. We hope you’ll take a listen you’ll let us know what you think!! About Missing WitchesAmy Torok and Risa Dickens produce the Missing Witches Podcast.
