Let’s really talk about the complexities of venerating and working with “white ancestors” and which people need to be prioritizing it before US. We get into the Black healing tradition of Vick’s Vaporub and how it was actually stolen from a Black woman, and why we should all be paying attention to the Caribbean island of Bonaire, right now.

Executive…
I’m talking SPICY topics today like, how can we practice traditions that value elders when the elders are causing just as much mayhem as the youngins.. and why so many non-Black people are taking up space in Black religions when we really have no one to blame but ourselves. ..

What happens when Africana ritualistic items leave the ceremony and hit the runway for exorbitant prices? Is this a siphoning of ancestral magic or an amplification of it? How might this tie into the elderly women across Ghana being banned from their communities for being “witches?” Is the juju healing, harming, or simply profiting? Executive Producer + Host: Juju Bae Producer/DP: Jenahye Johnson…
