I'm not a Christian but from what I know about Christians "demonology" - her description sounds like the "Jezebel" or the "Leviathan" spirits/demons they believe in -- not Mami Wata.

Op here's another video on traditional African religions. And in a aspect the christians had to demonize indigenous people to justify the slaughter of them.

Yoruba or Akan.
I wish that thread was still up it had a few resources for both I used it when I was studying those traditions.

The only thing I’ll say is if any of this sh1t is true how the fucck were white peoples able to come into Africa and enslave Africans. All this otherworldly powers could have came in handy back then to save the slaves.

What's your religion and where are you from if you don't mind me asking. I truly feel bad for the traditional babalwos,Mambos, Hougans. paleros. They got to get shyt from the europeanized and arabized Africans calling them heathens and pagan worshippers to in the west people thinking they worship satan and sacrifice humans.

I was looking for that documentary for the longest time. However, I couldn't find the full version. I had done some research on the topic more but generally, if a religion such as Santeria, obeah, and etc is used to help the individual, the priest's work is called white witchcraft because the priest is seeking for a way to only help an individual but if it's used to harm others, their work is usually called black witchcraft because an unseen force is called upon to harm or kill someone.

I was talking about this to another poster. It's in the book destruction of black civilization. Africans welcomed them in and taught them and those things we taught them they use against us. What do you think shriners have all those sigils for

I knew it. It was a Somalian the other day calling them heathens on here. But they pray to the colonizer's god everyday 5 times a day. But that's another story. Traditional African systems are looked down upon no matter the country.

Well actually, our ancestors would retaliate against the slave owners by placing spiritual voodoo curses over the land. These slave owners understood the power of voodoo and that is why it was outlawed. As a result, they would hide away during hours of the night and place curses over the slave owners and the lands.FACTS. They did this because they believed it was their only way to retaliate against harsh treatment.
