How to use voodoo symbols to get sh*t done?
Like me, you were a little blown away by the slave scene in American Gods. Afterall, there have been hundreds of slave movies, where Africans are chained, oppressed, whipped, maimed, and beaten. Yet, I can count on one hand how many of these movies actually depicted slave revolts and insurrections accurately. For some reason, there is a black mark on that part of history. This is probably why we keep getting movies like Twelve Years a slave, Roots, and The Underground Railroad, instead of movies about Toussaint Louverture and the Haitian Revolution. But I am here to tell you that the slave scene from American Gods took a lot of guts. It’s not just because Orlando Jones was right, anger does get shit done. It is because that scene talks about the power of African gods and Voodoo symbols that they represent. I’m going to talk about all of this and more in this episode of witchy or bitchy!
Slave revolts in America
For some reason the slave revolts are something that aren’t really studied in your American History class. Jim Crow, yes, Civil Rights, yes, slavery, definitely a yes. But slave revolts, all we get are crickets or very cryptic information that we have to struggle to put together. Nate Turner had visions. He was Christian, but yet he had visions of orchestrating a slave revolt. Sojourner Truth also had visions, but she too was a Christian. And let’s not forget about Harriet Tubman, a feminist and black abolitionist who led slaves from the south to the north and later into Canada. She also had visions, but she too is portrayed as being a highly devoted, god fearing Christian. Are you guys starting to see a pattern here?

My belief is that the slave revolts aren’t really studied in our school history books, because then we have to acknowledge the fact voodoo played a huge factor in these rebellions. Afterall, everyone knows about Toussaint Louverture, but hardly anyone knows about Dutty Boukman and Cecil Faitman. These two were basically the masterminds behind the 1791 slave revolt in Haiti. They used religious symbols, prayers, and incantations to incite a revolution, and guess what guys, they weren’t Christian. Oh no! They were far from it. They were voodoo practitioners with incredible brutal military tactics. They burned down plantations, with their masters in them. They cut people’s heads and nailed them to spikes. They made necklaces from people’s severed ears. The literally hacked people to death with their machetes. And no one will ever have the balls to put any of this in a movie. Why? Because it’s too violent and too destructive. However, most people don’t understand that African derived religions and African Indigenous religions has a destructive element to them. Let me explain.
Voodoo Symbols and Veve
You have an immune system. Your immune system is responsible for fighting germs. If it is weakened, then bacteria can invade the body and not only make you sick but cause you to die. Your white blood cells fights off foreign bacteria. In short white blood cells destroys anything foreign to the body that might threaten its health and safety. Your body does this unconsciously to find its natural balance. What you didn’t know that is that nature also has a rhythm. When nature is off balance, destructive elements arise, earthquakes, volcanos, plagues, hurricanes, massive floods. These natural disasters erupt to stave off negative energies and promote healthy ones. Nature, much like our bodies, contracts and expand, contracts and expand. Just think about your kids. Any time one of them is growing through a growth spirt, the body is breaking down, destroying all the old cells, and building new ones. This my friends is the concept known as creative destruction. This is why in virtually every ancient culture there is the god of war, or the goddess of death. Our ancestors seemed to have understood that death is necessary in order for there to be a birth. However, in the world of wokeness, we have abandoned this concept and have adopted toxic positivity. Everyone needs to be positive all the time. I go on a huge bitch rant about this in my other video about The Craft. The biggest problem with toxic positivity, is that it forces you to defy your nature. When you defy your nature, you suppress the negative aspects of who you are, and then you become delusional. And develop a disconnection with nature.

Now, a lot of religions are not about nature. Rather, they are about rules, regulations, and restrictions. They’re basically cults with varying elements of control. Our ancestors seemed to have understood that the man hijacked many modern religions to attain power and money. So they conjured up a plan to destroy the system from within. They organized slave revolts, but not in the way that you think. If you were to read the cryptic passages in your American history books, you’d learn that slave revolts were a one-off event. That’s not really true. The slave revolts were an orchestrated series of events planned by voodoo priests and practitioners. What does this mean? Well, it means that all of the colonies in the United States and throughout the Diaspora were supposed to revolt around the same time. Let me explain how.

The Haitian Revolution started between 1791 and 1804. This by far is the most successful and most document slave revolt in history. In 1811, there was a slave revolt on the German Coast of Louisiana. Nat Turner’s rebellion took place in Virginia in 1831. In 1828 Sojourner Truth moved to New York and became a preacher. And the list goes on and on. These were people who had experienced visions, heard the word from god and decided to do something to bring an end to slavery. Now I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking that I have yet to make a valid argument about voodoo symbols and slave revolts. But just be patient, I haven’t gotten to that part yet.
Voodoo Religion Symbols
You see people fail to understand the symbols of African gods. In American gods, Anansi transformed into a spider. And what do spiders do? They create webs. Now from a metaphysical perspective we can see that the universe is structured like a giant web. We also have the world wide web, which has become the internet. So, we know we understand that the web symbolizes that connection that we all share. Since we’re all connected, we can communicate with each other. We do it already with our cell phones, and through text, messages, and even through chat rooms. However, when we use voodoo symbols like Anansi’s veve, we’re dialing him in. We saw this in that slave revolt scene in American gods. However, the best part of voodoo symbols and calls is that other people can hop on and listen to the call.

So, when you see someone drawing these voodoo symbols in the sand. Their actually making a phone call to an African God. And sometimes, it’s an open line, and other people can just hope on and listen. This is the reason why we have visions, and premonitions, and why we sometimes just know things. This is why people come up with great inventions, and beautiful works of art.
We are subconsciously receiving information from the gods that we used to serve. This is also why the voodoo priests in Haiti created voodoo symbols. They wanted to open up the land line so to speak and have as many people as they could listen in and do something to abolish slavery.
So, I need you to sound off in the comments below. Do you think that this video was bitchy or witchy? Do you think that there is correlation between voodoo symbols and slave revolts? Or do you think that I am just smoking crack. Please sound off in the comments below. Also, don’t forget to grab your free copy of Phantom’s Row.

Voodoo Symbols are the phone lines that connect us to the spiritual world, where we can connect with deities and ancestors for worship and veneration.
