HOODOO CAST - Episode 2: Old Black Belt Hoodoo Ft. Dr. Katrina Hazzard
HOODOO CAST: Podcast for Authentic Hoodoo - Akan Ancestral Religion in North America
Odwirafo travels to Philadelphia to dialogue with Dr. Katrina Hazzard, author of Mojo Workin': The Old African-American Hoodoo System. Her work is the first to document the transformation of Hoodoo from a full-fledged Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion when it first arrived in North america during the enslavement era to its expressions today. The recent resurgence of interest in Hoodoo, its ethnic origins as Akan Ancestral Religion and the exploitation by foreign, non-Black, marketeers attempting to resell our culture to us are examined.

Pan-African TV News ReportHistoric diasporans, scholars, and community leaders came together at the University of Ghana for a powerful town hall meeting on citizenship, repatriation, and the future of Black unity on the continent. Organized by The Black Agenda in collaboration with the Institute of African Studies, the gathering focused on one urgent question: how can historic diasporans return home and contribute fully if colonial-era barriers are still standing in the way?Speakers challenged the monetary and legal obstacles placed before historic diasporans seeking citizenship, arguing that these policies discourage return, block investment, and undermine the call for reconnection. The discussion also pushed beyond Ghana alone, calling for African leaders and continental institutions to take up the matter so that repatriation is treated not as an isolated national issue, but as a shared African responsibility.The event tied citizenship directly to reparative justice, self-reparations, and the right of scattered African descendants to come home without punishment, exclusion, or unnecessary burdens. The message was clear: the time has come for African laws and institutions to reflect the reality that Africa is one and indivisible, and that historic diasporans must be welcomed back in substance, not just in words.Hashtags:#repatriation #historicdiasporans #ghanacitizenship #blackagenda #universityofghana #reparativejustice #selfreparations #returntoafrica #blackunity #africaisone #diasporacitizenship #instituteofafricanstudies
