Nostalgia💚

Hoodoo was criminalized for centuries. Practitioners risked beatings, lynchings, prison, or the death of their entire family/friends (due to fear of it's preservation).

White academics, witches, and influencers have profited off of it without honoring the lineage or people.

Arab, European, and sometimes even African religious communities contributed to erasing its legitimacy or labeled it “evil” or “low.”

So now? It’s protected like a last remaining sacred language.

Because it is.

Quite frankly, I don't give a fuck.

I like my Racists straight up, not pussy covert. I want to be aware of where I'm not welcomed. I definitely don't want to spend my resources with them.

With $1.8 Trillion in spending power, it's time to build.

As a Soulaani, I do believe whichever issues exist within the diaspora need to truce and deal with our disagreements in-house. We don't have time to be divided and conquered.

They want to turn the country into a "Sundown Town"?

Fine.

However we will NOT take the bait, so he can arrest/abuse us and initiate Martial law!

Where are those folks who said this isn't what this administration represents? *LOL*

I've been so cynical lately about everyone who doesn't look like me. Too many well made masks. I didn't want others knowing my/our thoughts in this time. I haven't been posting lately due to this. I have so many posts in drafts it's crazy. Maybe I needed to regroup but anyway...
