Hoodoo Was Immensely Feared Back in The Day & Other Vintage Newspaper Clippings

[96Blue]

Alright, so I'm trying to learn more about my ancestral roots and shyt, I even ordered "Working The Roots: Over 400 Years Of Traditional African American Healing" By Michele E. Lee from Amazon to learn more about Herbalism and how our ancestors (Native Born Black Americans) were good at it. I joined 2 groups on Facebook and the first thing I see are a lot of CACS/Non-Black American people. Shyt don't sit right with me and some people (even Black people) will get mad when you bring it up, and it's the same shyt on Reddit.

Some of these people have entitlement issues, Breh.

Don't these CACS/Non-Black American people have their own forms of spirituality like Wicca, Brujeria, 21 Divisiones, etc?

These people were just demonic. I have to do a thread on them robbing graves for Black cadavers. It was very popular - and I am sure they still do it.

This is disgusting and demonic...... basically White Culture.

This was very real --- and happened all over the country it appears. And for a very long time.

I found over 50 + listings. It's sick.

This is the game: African dodger - Wikipedia

African dodger, also known as Hit the c00n and Hit the ****** Baby, was a carnival game played in the United States, in which an African-American man would stick his head through a canvas curtain, and attempt to dodge objects, such as eggs or baseballs, thrown at him by players.[1] It was popular in the late 19th and early 20th century, despite the obvious brutality of hitting someone in the head with baseballs. The target often suffered serious injuries.[2][3] The game was played as early as the 1880s and up to the 1950s, and is documented as late as circa 1965 at a Texas state fair in Dallas.[4][5] Smaller kit-based versions of the game were also sold to be played at home. However, African Americans continued to be used for similar games, with Popular Mechanics noting in 1910 that African dodger had become "too old and commonplace" and was being replaced with dunk tanks in which an African American would fall into a tank of water when a target was hit with a ball. The illustration accompanying the article shows a game labeled "Drop the Chocolate Drop" and is captioned "Amusing to All but the Victim".[1]

Wow
Not much shocks me these days, but I was genuinely shocked reading these.

There was brief footage of this type of thing in the Burn Hollywood Burn video from Public Enemy, but I didn't know the backstory.


@2 minute mark

These people are devils and they descend from devils.

Anyone know of a good reference book in regards to Quimbanda?
