Mentioned this in a thread about the roots of Pan Africanism.
Also gave Simon Bolivar supplies and soldiers to help liberate South American colonies, on the condition that he abolish slavery in those places.

If that's not the definition of PanAfricanism, then NOTHING is.

Even though I am not a practitioner my favorite part about Haitian culture is the beauty of Vodou. Yea many Haitians have pride in the Haitian revolution(I do too) but when you study the different Loas you find out they each have their own characteraztion and I find them RICHER than any Norse, Greek, Egyptian, Ameridian, etc pantheon but difference is that they're actually taken seriously and survived. Me coming from a Christian background on BOTH my Haitian and ADOS side my family is very anti-Vodou. Ezili Dantor and Bawon Samedi are my favorite Loas but.... Both are ruthless af especially the latter.

To what do you attribute the anti-Vodou sentiment among Haitians?

What do you mean exactly? You're asking what percentage of Haitians do I believe are anti-Vodou?

No, anti-Vodou sentiment from those not familiar with it is one thing. Your (Haitian)parent and other Haitians who are against it have some familiarity/knowledge/xperience with what is is. What do you think causes them to be so strongly against it?

My Haitian side are just your typical overly zealous Haitian Christians. lol Has nothing to do with the bolded. I'd be surprised if they had knowledge or familiarity with it.

Think you're dodging the question, but I'll leave it alone.
