I really really appreciate the respectful way he explained my culture and practices . Especially when the woman asked about spells ...he in turn said “manipulate materials “ that was wonderful. I wish they understood vudu though and not spoke of it in a negative tone .

I appreciate the care he afforded in explaining this topic.

Why didn't they have a Black person speak on this?

[@drizzey680]

Because Black People are ashamed of their own history. They'd rather pray to a European Jesus. 🦝

Umm, I'll give some credit but Hoodoo wasn't brought from Africa alone, Hoodoo is a mixture of Indigenous black cultures of America and European Christianity since our Ancestors weren't able to practice w/o the threat of death. And Voodoo nor Any other African practice is Evil or "black magic" STOP demonizing cultural practices you Don't understand.

I love what he said. " what New Orleans is to Voodoo, Memphis is to Hoodoo." I can definitely see that! 😱
