    Thank you for this. Santeria is also frowned upon by Christianity. I’m so glad that many of these ancient tales survived over the centuries and continue to inspire people today. Many of the traditions of the Taino people have been lost and it breaks my heart that my ancestral stories didn’t survive the colonization.

    Other than Igbo Landing, I had no idea there was other documented evidence of Igbo slaves. I am delighted & heartbroken at the same time to see this information.

    Thank you Dr. George for your grace, strength, will, and emotional intelligence to endure not only obstacles to be where you are academically in life, but also to be the voice to report global African Herstory/History and contribute to restoring dignity to the Seeds of Humanity whose skin radiates the sun.
    That deep breath (18:22) that you and We took when mentioning how Mama Zogbe petitioned to U.S. Congress to reclassify African Traditional Spiritual religions + practices from "occult and satanic"... We deeply comprehend and felt it...
    The audacity for a descendent of Free Africans, Mama Zogbe, then has to petition to the former human traffickers and their corrupt systems is...
    Well, Balance will be restored. Ma'At

    Mama water is showing up everywhere in America. Her characteristics are shown in the black culture and European influences. The fact that she is shown having this long flowing hair, light and dark skin,her spiritual links to fertility and she possess the woman also hit home. There is and evil undertones still. Thanks for putting out this info pls continue to bless with this knowledge. Learning the roots don't always look good and even though our culture have been put through so much pain, we shouldn't conform to evil.

    Virginia. The geographic origins of enslaved Africans are available for two-thirds (53,092) of the approximately 85,834 carried into Virginia. Most numerous were captives from the Bight of Biafra. They were especially dominant in the first half of the century. Thus Igbo, who were the majority of peoples living inland from the slave trading ports of Old and New Calabar and Bonny, along with coastal Ibibio, Efik, and Moko peoples from the Niger River Delta area of present-day Nigeria or adjacent Cameroon made continuous and substantial contributions to evolving African American culture in Virginia.

      Maryland. The geographic origins of enslaved Africans are available for just over half (11,800) of the enslaved Africans carried into Maryland. Most numerous were captives from the region of Senegambia. They were followed closely by people from West Central Africa. In marked contrast to neighboring Virginia, in Maryland slaves from the Bight of Biafra were relatively few (12 percent versus 43 percent)...

    I applaud her for trying but there are so much misrepresentations and lacks in her litterature on the Ayitian practices and understanding of Mami Wata, Ezili, La Siren and else. Hope she continues her research and takes more time to understand the African ancestral knowledge she will report on. Again, well done for trying.
