The Islamic Origins of Voodoo in New Orleans boldly explores the often-overlooked African and Islamic foundations of Voodoo as it developed in the cultural melting pot of New Orleans. With meticulous research and a fresh historical lens, this groundbreaking work connects the dots between West African Islamic traditions, enslaved Muslim populations, and the evolution of spiritual practices in Louisiana. Authoritative and thought-provoking, this book sheds light on how Islamic belief systems, rituals, and cosmology helped shape the mystical framework of Voodoo, challenging Eurocentric narratives and inviting readers to rethink the origins of one of the most misunderstood spiritual traditions in America. Whether you’re a scholar, spiritual seeker, or simply curious about the untold stories of American history, this book offers an essential perspective that bridges faith, culture, and resistance.
