Can you believe the audacity of these people saying Africans protecting their culture and society is evil while they criminalize African practice of polygamy. I'm sure it won't be long they will rewrite the Bible to remove the portions that says God is against homosexual behaviour that is a sin against the human body

I agree with you 💯. I’m from Haiti, I don’t practice voodoo, but I know it’s a big part of my culture. I know a lot of people especially Caucasian people go to Haiti to take part in Voodoo and know the secrets of the religion. But they’re the first ones to talk bad about it. So I can understand why the Benin people are doing it that way. Even though I don’t practice the religion, I believe it’s imperative that we keep it to ourselves.

There is no unity outside of Jesus Christ the LORD. Only a fool would unify based on skin color. A wise man unifies with others on values, beliefs, character, and truth. The bethlehemite.
African culture is very powerful. In my tribe kisiis in Kenya, special people in the community used to gather around a huge tree facing the mountain and rain came during a prolonged drought. The sick got healed. The white man came with a bible and a government, we lost our culture. They told us that our culture was evil and theirs was holy. Look at us now, global warming, incurable diseases, war, homosexuality, corruption and hard economic times.

Wode Maya, it is an embarrassment for you as an ambassador of African cultural identity, to have never before traveled and attended this prestigious annual event, that is merely 5hrs drive away from Accra Ghana. When many others, many times, myself included, have travelled halfway across the globe to attend. Although I too am of African descent, and a traditionalist in the beliefs of my W.African ancestors, I’d also have been considered on a “tourist” visa, but I make great efforts to attend yearly or alternative years, yet others like yourself have full access and close proximity, yet don’t educate yourself about your own ancestors culture….
Despite the atrocities, the culture survives!!!!!
The amount of mzungus being there makes me suspect that it really is the watered down tourist version. But I understand they can't give out all the secrets. Now for what I know from friends who have gone, they went to the festival and also actual villages outside of the festival who practice under specific deities. It's a completely different experience. People there know those who are genuinely interested in learning and practicing the religion when they meet them.
I think Europeans have always and continue to try and permeate what is not for them at all times. Their presence brings down the authenticity- but Voodoo is forever stronger than them. I want to attend this festival at least once , but as a member of the diaspora, I’d rather go to Benin to experience Voodoo away from culture vultures and tourists. Thank you for this exploration, and I am a new subscriber BECAUSE of it! Blessings! 🙏🏾

No it doesn't if they come sincerely and respectfully. Do you think any non-African coming to learn about African culture respectfully is a "culture vulture"? That's nonsense.
This is what was used to fight against the colonizers in many Caribbean countries. The reason they call it evils is because it is powerful when the people use it as a united force, so they had to prevent that use. It is a powerful mental and manifesting belief to be able to manipulate the elements within and out of yourself, and in nature.

Waking up to what, where were the spirit idols when the enemy attack and enslaved Africa, stole from Africa and this so call idol, didn't talk and save us. Wake up Africa and refrain from idol worship, it's an abomination ok . It is because of this idol worship that's why Africa 🌍 is Bless with all natural resources, gold 🥇, diamonds 💎, platinum, aluminum, copper, good whether for farming, yet most Africa 🌍 people lives in extreme poverty, Repent Jesus saves 🙏❤️
A lot of Africans are afraid of this side of their culture because of their bad deeds. In the villages that practice these voodos, people hardly commit crime because they know what could happen to them. A lot of us are hiding behind religion and are committing various sins because we get away with it. We all need to open our eyes and start asking questions.

Most cultures have a spiritual belief system, if you check all based on mysticism, however none of them is vilified as the one from Africa, but when you see how the others worship it is all basically the same, but the one practice in Africa is so powerful that it had to banished and seen as evil, this was supposed to be a weapon for protection against your enemy in case of war, but not to be used for self gain. This is supposed to garner the elements, use your mental energy etc, all primitive cultures have or had that ability

Maya I was born in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and Voodoo is not viewed as a good thing here. However, when someone is desperate for “help” for a family member or friends, visiting a voodoo person seems to be more common even if they are considered to be Christians. Some may not want to admit it. I can only guess there is good and bad voodoo and people are desperate when the church cannot assist. We use to have really good spiritual leaders and churches in Jamaica such as Pocco churches, who will be the help the community need, but that too became washed up and decreased in right spiritual connection. Everyone have to find their way because everything we thought was good is now bad and everything we thought was bad is now good. We all have to pray for wisdom and understanding and test the spirit. Be Bless. I love what you do.. 🙏🇯🇲🥰🥰

AM DEFINATELY GOING TO FILM THE NEXT FESTIVAL. IN THE MEANTIME, LET ME SHARE THIS VIDEO. Much love from South Africa
I am a proud and unapologetic Vodou devotee living in Jamaica and in this island obeah and Vodou is condemned and seen as evil and wicked. It pains my heart to see caucasians running down Vodou knowledge and wisdom while so many Afrakan and Afrakan Caribbean people condemn their own heritage and culture. I will always honor and cherish my heritage and i pray that one day Vodou will be acknowledged as the birthright inheritance of Afrakans around the world. Ayibobo.

I agreed with you my dear, but it is not their fault but European deception.
I must thank you for the education that we would have never known, if we don't travel and experience different Cultures.
By far one of the best contents I've ever seen, the culture, the richness of the information, very educative, an eye opener...thank you Wode Maya!

Was looking forward to this one. Keep up the good work!
love this video thank you for giving us a new and fair perspective!!
Vodun means Spirit. A Nature based Spirituality. Vodun has been Practied by our Ancestors for Thousands of Years just like all other diverse Indigenous Afrikan Spiritualities before Man-Made Colonizer religion was invented and Violently Foreced, via Slavery. Vodun has also Freed many of our Ancestors during the earliest days of the Maafa. Long Live Afrikan Spirituality ❤🖤💚 ✊🏾🌌🌠☀🌕🌳🌴🌺🛖.

Everybody is waking up!! Great video!!
This one will add a million subscribers on this channel. Good piece Maya
Amazing and thank you for the insight into Africa
Maya, there's nothing evil with our African traditional medicine that is based on nature. Please let us stop using derogatory word to describe our ancestors traditional medicine as 'voodoo'. Haitian and Ethiopian used the African traditional medicine successfully, defeated the French and Italian their colonial powers long time ago. I'm happy that you have the courage to gave us this educational video on African traditional medicine that some of us used to in Yoruba culture, Western Nigeria when we are growing up.There is nothing evil about it.I cherish my African traditional medicine that is based on nature. God bless you and protect you for the amazing work you are doing for Mama Africa.
Vodoo is not Africa's only religion
This was awesome! I love your work, Sir!!! Hello from the US! ❤
