Did you know that Evangelical Christian Haitians lynched other Haitians who never succumbed to the white man’s God and remained practicing Afro-Indigenous religions after the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, blaming them for both the earthquake and massive cholera outbreak in 2010? And Rastafarians are being persecuted on the continent because of the texture of their hair and the fact that they inhale a plant God made? Dr. Danielle Boaz gave us the REAL.

Father Abraham had MANY sons, okay???

PURCHASE Banning Black Gods: Law and Religions of the African Diaspora by Dr. Danielle Boaz

“Banning Black Gods is well worth reading for anyone interested in religion and law, Africana religions, religion and race, and many other fields. Boaz’s broad scope and bold insight combine to make a cogent case for religious racism as a framework for understanding the legal challenges faced by practitioners of African diaspora religions transnationally.”

― Dr. Alexandria Griffin, Assistant Professor of Religion at NCF. MA in Women’s Studies in Religion, a PhD in Religious Studies. Author of Reading Religion
