Hoodoo Saints and Root Warriors: Stories and Magick for Liberation

This is a spiritual guidebook on how to successfully use the ancestral energy of cultural sheroes and heroes in the fight against persecution, privilege, white supremacy, reproduction restrictions, and LGBTQIA+ discrimination. This is a war manual intent on aiding its readers with the specifics of how to thrive in a world hell-bent on our annihilation.

By working magick with the 12 Hoodoo saints in this book, we learn how to create a more balanced society that supports and honors all BIPOC and AAPI folks. Using the tools in book, readers will explore everyday ways to tell the world, "I matter, and I refuse to be silenced." Conjuring the Calabash author Mawiyah Kai EL-Jamah Bomani introduces these revolutionary warriors and explains why their energy is necessary right now. She even teaches how to canonize our own elevated ancestor or spiritual icon.

Hoodoo is conjure; it is rootwork; it is Black folks' spiritual hygiene and a weapon for social change. Hoodoo is a way of communicating with the universal spirits; it is a channeling of powerful and beloved figures. This book shares inspiring stories, shows how to incorporate those saints into daily spell work, and expands any practitioner's repertoire through rituals, dice divination, altar work, and more.
