In this October 7, 2016 photo, a girl prepares to place a veil on a statue of Our Lady of the Rosary during the annual Afro-Christian Congada celebration in Catalao, Goias state, Brazil. According to local legend, the ritual was first performed by Black slaves in the 1800s in Brazil where the Catholic icon, Our Lady of the Rosary, is associated with the African divinity Yemanja, or Sea Mother.
