      <image:title>About - Wanda Battle</image:title>
      <image:caption>As a Montgomery, Alabama native and lead Legendary Tours guide, Wanda Battle is no stranger to the historical relevance that her magical city has to offer. Being born during the 1956 Montgomery Bus Boycott and raised during the 1960’s Civil Rights Movement, Wanda has grown up with a sense of community that is unmatched. Ingrained in her is the desire to bring together a collaborative community that works to make life a better place for the next generation through the art of storytelling, and thus, Wanda has deemed herself a great Jalimuso, or Griot. Rooted in West Africa, a Jalimuso is a female Griot, commonly known as a wordsmith in West African culture. The craft of storytelling, using the power of music and words, is typically passed down through family members in an art form known as Jaliyaa. Most individuals who become Griots have an ancient history of being connected to serving royal families and sharing their knowledge through song, poetry, and stories. Wanda is a physical representation of a true Griot through each and every Legendary Tour and invites others to do the same. Using the inspiration of standing against injustices and segregation, Wanda embodies her ancestors as she fulfills her passion for legacy during each tour. Wanda uses her background in music to share experiences of everything from the non-violent movement led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to the Human Rights Movement and many other historical facets in Alabama history to offer an entertaining yet life-changing virtual experience. She is a 1977 graduate of Spelman College, B.A. Degree in Music, specialized in Voice and Performance.</image:caption>
