“Do you really speak the language? Do you know what your name is?” Vilification, bastardization, and dumbing down black people seems to have been in fashion since cameras started rolling over in the Americas. From the stage to the screen from the white globes of the minstrel shows to the white gloves finding there way onto Mickey and other beloved cartoons if you love it chances are it’s roots go back to chattel slavery. But this video isn’t meant to focus on the bad. This video is a mix of both fictitious representation of ATR and actual real life footage of black people being , raw, real, and powerful. I wanted to highlight key things such as animals that hold some of secrets. Bre’r Rabbit, Li Gran Zombi, Aunt Nancy just to name a few. Ring shouts and catching the Holy Ghost can also be seen in there as well for purposes I was going to go into depth over but thinking about it I believe it’s best if I leave them in obscurity. The presentation before is in no way a full representation of black majick or what hoodoo is but serves as a way of letting you know that like God and water it will take the form of whatever it’s host need them to be. 🎶Exuma the obeah man
