      Great. But their spiritual practices and yours are both false. No matter the wrong they did to your ancestors, doesn't make your ancestors' falsehoods suddenly true... We have a method that explains the causes and effects of molecules such as pharmodynamics and pharmokinetics known as the scientific method. Voodoo doesn't, nor does Christianity. Follow facts and science. Not some mythical belief with no basis in reality (and having a basis in herbology doesn't prove the false belief system either).

      Renaissances are cultural movements of learning and experiments, of course for that to happen some knowledge must be kept alive and be passed over the centuries but that doesn’t mean a cultural movement won’t happen when enough creative activists want to invent new ways of spreading knowledge about it.

    And that's what people don't get. That it's a way of life. Obeah is and was the practice in the west indies and Guyana and many of the people who see it as evil don't realize that the way they cook and clean and even speak, many of their superstitions and child rearing practices and their natural leaning towards plant medicine, is part of that practice...no evil there..

    Voodoo (Voudou) is so beautiful to me. It incorporates reverence for the ancestors, reverence and respect for the natural world, music, dance, different cultures, different languages, different foods...I wish the stigma of it being evil or "dark," etc would be dismantled by folks who would see it, experience it and see it in a much different light. Being half Native, it's beautiful to see how our practices may be different, but we're all so much more alike than we are different.

    I'm interested in hearing about the perspective I read toted, that voodoo is a closed practice, but when painted in this broader sense shown, it seems no different from any ancestral spiritual practice around the world, making offerings and honoring ancestors, this is done in pre-abrahamic spiritualities all over the world. So my question is: is voodoo a specific kind of closed practice, or is it just a word to describe the ancestral spirituality practiced by a specific group of people? If people in Peru, Ireland, or Japan honor their ancestors in such similar manners, is it really any different? Only using different herbs, different rituals, different names, but the meaning is the same at all of their core. I only say this to say, all people on earth share this common relation if we go back far enough to our roots, before the colonialism and brainwashing of missionaries around the world.

    • @BOBMAN1980
      @BOBMAN1980 22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The ancestor worship is only part of voodoo, and they're trying o display that because they don't want to get into the deep fraud of what they say they practice.
      This really is mostly snakeoil.
      Lived in New Orleans almost 20-years. Looked into the matter and studied it (among other spiritual practices) somewhat. All I can say with any certainty is most of it is a sham.

    Jessyka got a lot of inspiration from Sally Ann Glassman who she’s tried to shun right after mentoring under her. Jessyka also is not native to Nola, she tries to act super knowledgeable about the place.

    That was beautiful. Here in Brazil we also have some religions similar to voodoo. Similar in the sence that the africans also brought their beliefs to the this country and that they also had to mascarate what their were worshiping by using catholic saints instead. These religions are called Umbanda and Candomblé.

    Great little film. I would have liked it to have been a bit longer to learn more about the people and traditions.

      It's a closed practice so no they shouldn't share traditions

    This is no different than other forms of shamanism, globally. Cause no harm, but I hope they can keep their culture, especially as an oppressed people

    Just a question, why didn’t the enslaved people use voodoo to get back at the oppressors? I mean, if such a powerful tool existed (voodoo can be used for good and bad), why couldn’t they have utilised it to punish their oppressors?

      What makes you think they didn’t? Just cause they didn’t publicize it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen

      @ ummm, because oppression went on for a while and oppressors got away with a lot of atrocious stuff.
