Manman Brigitte is a venerated figure in the Haitian Vodou religion. Her fiery red hair and fair-skinned complexion hint at her Irish origins — historians believe she evolved from the Celtic goddess Brigid and the Catholic St. Brigid of Kildare. Today, she’s called upon by vodou practitioners for her healing powers, and she’s considered a protector of women against violence or unfaithful lovers.
