Bakongo spiritual protections influenced African American yard decorations. In Central Africa, Bantu-Kongo people decorated their yards and entrances to doorways with baskets and broken shiny items to protect from evil spirits and thieves.

This practice is the origin of the bottle tree in Hoodoo. Throughout the American South in African American neighborhoods, there are some houses that have bottle trees and baskets placed at entrances to doorways for spiritual protection against conjure and evil spirits.

In addition, nkisi culture influenced jar container magic. An African American man in North Carolina buried a jar under the steps with water and string in it for protection. If someone conjured him the string would turn into a snake. The man interviewed called it inkabera

favorite thing about this manga is that aliens didn't even need to interfere. humanity did this to itself, and then had its robots carry out the final extermination and 'pray away' game when they realized their souls couldn't move on just yet!

I love the little design details in the Kongou class.

Kongou and Kirishima both have chrystal accessoires

Everyone's name starts either with "H" or "K" (so far so good), which in turn gives us the following results concerning hair colour:

K = Blonde K = Brown H = Brown H = Blonde Of every hair colour we also have a "short" and "long" version. Blonde would be Haruna (long) and Kongou (short (her hair isn't actually short, but it's always showed pinned up which counts as far as I am concerned)). Brown would be Hiei (long) and Kirishima (short).

Every sister carries another as her eyes. Kongou's eyes are red, Hiei's biolights are red/pink.

Hiei's eyes are yellow/gold, Haruna's lights are yellow.

Haruna's eyes are green, Kirishima's lights are green.

Kirishima's eyes are purple, Kongou's lights are purple.

ALL FOUR went batshit crazy and with that I mean 1. Kongou's berserk run 2. Kirishima's mental breakdown when she was hunting Iona in Yokosuka 3. Manga Haruna who ALSO went on a berserk run and had to be calmed down by the Admiralty Code itself 4. Hiei in DC after having one (1) conversation with Iona Our two blondes also wear mostly dark clothing, while the brunettes wear more colourful/lighter stuff.

Everyone except Haruna also wears lipstick, but I don't really see a pattern here, tbh.

Also, I dare to assume that Kongou's mental model is albinistic, which makes the whole black ship thing insanely funnier since someone essentially was like: "Oh! Let's give the melanistic ship, who is the literal reason her fleet is called Black Fleet, an albinistic mental model!" and then went with it.

The Kingdom of Loango was rich and successful, but had its darker side too. From the encounters with European explorers to the complex dynamics of trade and slavery, the triumphs and tribulations of this remarkable pre-colonial state impacted and shaped what would become Western Congo.

During the era of slavery, occultist Paschal Beverly Randolph began studying the occult and traveled and learned spiritual practices in Africa and Europe. Randolph was a mixed race free African man who wrote several books on the occult. In addition, Randolph was an abolitionist and spoke out against the practice of slavery in the South.

After the American Civil War, Randolph educated freedmen in schools for former slaves called Freedmen's Bureau Schools in New Orleans, Louisiana, where he studied Louisiana Voodoo and hoodoo in African American communities, documenting his findings in his book, Seership, The Magnetic Mirror. In 1874, Randolph organized a spiritual organization called Brotherhood of Eulis in Tennessee.

Through his travels, Randolph documented the continued African traditions in Hoodoo practiced by African Americans in the South. Randolph documented two African American men of Kongo origin that used Kongo conjure practices against each other. The two conjure men came from a slave ship that docked in Mobile Bay in 1860 or 1861.
