I’m not going to lie ya’ll, I’m venting alot because where we are as Black people in this time has me completely shook. We are now asserting that the transatlantic slave trade wasn’t real and claiming we don’t have African ancestry. IS EVERYBODY OK? But we also talked about Ice Cube Voodoo Dolls, Hoodoo as Africana retention, and more about my book talk in Dakar.

Detty December seems to have grown into a tourist trap marketed as a return home for Black Americans and a price hike for locals –while slave castles across West Africa (specifically Goree Island) may be overly over exaggerating its role in the middle passge for financial gain…what does it mean when tourism is centered on Black pain and how must we move forward with that knowing?  Executive Producer + Host: Juju Bae Producer/DP: Jenahye Johnson Consulting Producer: Janicia Francis Audio/Visual Editor: Oreoluwa Akinyode Production Support: Alexandra Di Palma  Production Support: Alexandra Di Palma  Set Design: Cowrie Studios  Juju Bae  A Little Juju Club Remix: THEDARKERSISTA A Little Juju theme song: nihlisdesconocido Help Financially Support ALJ Pod: PATREON.COM/JUJUBAE  Cashapp: $itsjujubae Venmo:itsjujubae https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/itsjujubae Get your physical copy of The Book of Juju: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/juju-bae/the-book-of-juju/9781454951285/ Get the Book of Juju audio book: https://podiumentertainment.com/titles/31443/the-book-of-juju IG: @ alittlejujupodcast @ itsjujubae  Tik Tok: itsjujubae  Facebook: Juju Bae  Bring Juju Bae to your university, school, or community events:  Contact me:  Website: https://www.jujubae.com Resources House of Slaves Debunk: https://www.hnn.us/blog/5969 https://www.starnewsonline.com/story/news/2005/02/13/islands-role-in-african-slave-trade-disputed/30772617007/ UNESCO world site: https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/26/ Goree History: https://slaveryandremembrance.org/articles/article/?id=A0110 COD Liver Oil Bissap: https://www.darwin-nutrition.fr/en/beneficial-foods/bissap/  https://fourcarrockcourt.com/bissap-hibiscus-juice/ Tonton Issa to contact via Whatsapp for Senegal tours: +221)-774560034 Additional Video Credits and Sources  Super 8 Footage in Nigeria(Osun Alawoye River in Ibadan) Filmed by Oreoluwa Ifamodupe Akinyode Ghana Tiktok-  Maame Adwoa (@jowodaaa) Let’s Get the bill Tiktok- Cleotrapa (@Cleotrapa) Learn more about your ad choices.

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 Consulting Producer: Janicia Francis Audio/Visual Editor: Oreoluwa Akinyode Production Support: Alexandra Di Palma  Set Design: Cowrie Studios  Juju Bae  A Little Juju Club Remix: THEDARKERSISTA A Little Juju theme song: nihlisdesconocido Help Financially Support ALJ Pod: PATREON.COM/JUJUBAE  Cashapp: $itsjujubae Venmo:itsjujubae https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/itsjujubae Get your physical copy of The Book of Juju: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/juju-bae/the-book-of-juju/9781454951285/ Get the Book of Juju audio book: https://podiumentertainment.com/titles/31443/the-book-of-juju IG: @ alittlejujupodcast @ itsjujubae  Tik Tok: itsjujubae  Facebook: Juju Bae  Bring Juju Bae to your university, school, or community events:  Contact me:  Website: https://www.jujubae.com/contact Resources:  A modern day witch hunt is happening in Ghana https://www.instagram.com/p/DRdaMmTjYi-/?img_index=1&igsh=MnFjbHI1NGZsdDNz Sign Petition: https://www.amnesty.org/en/petition/stand-with-women-accused-of-witchcraft-in-ghana/ GUZANGS- African Ritual Aesthetics in the Age of Luxury Fashion  By Bernando Dayo: https://guzangs.com/how-african-designers-navigate-the-sacred-and-the-market/ The cute purses i like, lol: https://adamaparis.com/index.php/en/shop/jewlery-bag Mali Dogon Knowledge Development:  https://ubuntulearningsolutions.com/theory-of-ubuntugogy/ Vinegar benefits: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15698693/ https://www.uchicagomedicine.org/forefront/health-and-wellness-articles/debunking-the-health-benefits-of-apple-cider-vinegar https://health.clevelandclinic.org/exploring-the-health-benefits-of-apple-cider-vinegar Super 8 Footage in Nigeria(Osun Alawoye River in Ibadan) Filmed by Oreoluwa Ifamodupe Akinyode Learn more about your ad choices.
