I need you to write a page and a half essay that teaches us about contemporary expressions of Islamic belief and practice that are particular to Senegal specially sectarian and local religion.
Some historical information can be provided if necessary, though this should make up only a small part of your presentation, as the focus here should be on contemporary beliefs and practices. Things to consider include: sectarian af- filiations, important founding figures/saints, Islamic political influences, religious de- mographics and minority populations, local religious holidays, forms of popular piety, im- portant shrines and holy sites, among many other cultural expressions of Islam that are unique to your country. These are suggestions, but you can add and subtract from this list as you see fit. The most important thing is to teach the class what you think is most important. Make this your own presentation that you believe is the best way of telling the story.
