A brief history on African religion in the U.S. and its commodification by Europeans.

Our ancestors were murdered for practicing our systems of healing and spiritual communion, and were labeled as devil worshippers because Europeans feared the power of those systems of active faith.

Africans had no concept of the devil the way it was forced upon us through European christianity. Fear of our families being broken apart, fear of our children, wives, and husbands being raped or castrated, fear of being punished to death for being ourselves- FEAR was the portal through which the devil, white Jesus, heaven, and hell came into our psyches and still affect us to this day.

Nana Akua Oparebea was a multi-faceted and powerful priest in her own right. With her
close associations with Ghana’s first president, Kwame Nkrumah and the Convention People’s
party, she was an astute cultural and political innovator. Emmanuel Akyeampong writes that
Nana Oparebea and the Ghana Psychic and Traditional Healing Association were part of
Nkrumah’s “pursuit of the African personality and identity.”145 As Nkrumah’s spiritual
consultant, she also helped to foster his “religious pluralism.” 146 She extended this pluralism
with her transnational cultural coalition with Nana Yao Opare Dinizulu, who was more of an
African spiritual purist, in that he did not mix Akↄm practices with other ritual applications or
dogmas even though he did socially interface with other groups in the spirit of Pan-Africanism.
With Dinizulu, she pioneered an African Diaspora legacy that is far-reaching and influential in
the United States with thousands of priests trained in service to the Akonnedi Shrine deities of
Asuo Gyebi, Adade Kofi and Nana Esi Ketewa. In 1965 they created the first Akan shrine to be
exported across the Atlantic to voluntarily bring the spiritual practice to Africans in the
Americas.
