  • I'm Not Black, I'm Cherokee

    I'm Not Black, I'm Cherokee
    Feb 4 2026
    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.

  • Unpacking The Return "Home"

    Unpacking The Return "Home"
    Jan 28 2026
    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?

    Non Blacks in Black Religions
    Jan 21 2026
    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. ..

  • Juju for Harming, Healing, or Aesthetic?

    Juju for Harming, Healing, or Aesthetic?
    Jan 14 2026
    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?
