Diompillor America - News around the Kissi Community

“Idols With Tears,” is a book on the Kissi culture. The Kissi are found in Sierra Leone, Liberia and in French-Guinea, on Africa’s west coast. This book is on those found in Sierra Leone. Yet, the Kissi of these three countries live in the same geographical location, but divided by colonial boundaries. The book tells the life of a Chief Priest, in a normal Kissi village, and how these people are wonderful psychics, great farmers, mysterious reapers, with great knowledge in astronomy. Reading about them only picture life in a traditional African village setting even to this day.

This work is also to teach the reader, how these ancient people with their deities, and psychics, can still influence, work with, and gain from the forces of nature, and thus helping them to play mysterious deeds in their local existence. This indeed, is the life of the Kissi.

Although the activities and mysteries associated with this book are true, yet, some names of the characters are fictitious.
