Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa was born in 1921 in Zululand, South Africa.
His life was shaped by the cultural clash between his Christian father and traditional Zulu mother.
Raised in various locations due to his father's work, Mutwa faced trauma and discrimination in his youth.
A traumatic experience at 14 led him to return to his Zulu roots, where his grandfather's care inspired him to question Western narratives about African history and culture.
This experience, along with his exposure to both Christian and traditional Zulu beliefs, motivated Mutwa to become a shaman healer and preserve African knowledge through his writings and teachings.
