Join us Thursday, February 12th at 1pm for a fascinating talk with feminist philosopher Dr. Lindsey Stewart about her book, The Conjuring of America: Mojos, Mermaids, Medicine, and 400 Years of Black Women’s Magic. It tells the stories of Negro Mammies of slavery; the Voodoo Queens and Blues Women of Reconstruction; and the Granny Midwives and textile weavers of the Jim Crow era. These women, in secrecy and subterfuge, courageously and devotedly continued their practices and worship for centuries and passed down their traditions. Join us to take part in the magic and celebrate the legacy of America’s founding Black women. Register here for this free virtual discussion.
