Manage episode 357800331 series 3359849
Papa Seer tells the tragic origin story of Saint Josephine Bakhita , who was stolen from her homeland of South Sudan and sold into slavery at age 7.
“The Glory of Black” is a four part podcast series dedicated to the lives of African & African-American Saints. The saints are considered heroes of the Catholic faith, lives deified with holiness due to their wondrous acts of love and charity on Earth.
In most ATR’s and African- American practice’s the saints have been synchronized with spirits, deities and the voodoo lwa pantheon, an esoteric practice used to disguise our once outlawed religions to preserve them. Although these images of Catholicism were not originally correlated with any of our beliefs, the ancestors grew to love and appreciate the power of working with the saints. Because of this, there are many traditionalists to this day who disregard saint veneration as solely a Eurocentric tradition.
Hoodoo Conjure Rootwork LLC presents this four part series in hopes to enlighten the world on the “Black” influence that has transformed the catholic faith and to give voices to these often forgotten and unknown figures that represent the “Glory of Black.”
