Africa is rich with a variety of traditional religions and spiritual belief systems. However during the colonial period missionaries spread Christianity throughout the continent, and suppressed many of these pre-existing belief systems.
Africans continued to follow their traditional belief, in smaller numbers than before, and these faiths…

Maferefun Shango 📿, I'm Cuban and so proud of learning more about all this. People are waking up, and realizing that good book is full of crap. Find your connection with God , and reach your destiny.
BBC. Come on now. You show the name of the man who works for a colonizer backed institution, but not the women in Africa who gave of their time, energy and spirit so that you could profit from a video?
You pick out what you like. Before christianity people sacrificed humans. It‘s still happening today. How can you say this is good?
Beautiful
Best thing ever. Follow your heart
Respect our ancestors 💪
May the highest bless you 🙏
The way you see fit, abrahamic or not…
Very biased video.
This 'Anti-colonialism message' is a Socialist ploy to get Westernized people to hate Western Values. I agree Traditional beliefs have their importance but their were genuine converts to Christianity and that's also important. Thanks.
Christianity has been in Africa for thousands of years. Missionaries spread Christianity from the Middle East throughout the world. Thank G-d for those brave missionaries.
I think it's important to have Freedom of Religion and to allow missionary belief systems to move freely. Stay blessed, amen.❤😊🌍🌎🌏🗺️
Praying for you guys and those reading this comment to know the wonderful power of the name of Jesus and the freedom he can bring from the bondage brought on by pagan practices like this! Some of you reading this are looking for answers in life, some of you search for inner peace and struggle with sleep and restlessness, call on the name of Jesus and see the difference in your life!
I want to add an interesting note. In europe, in early christian times, many people practiced protective magics. They were not viewed as witches. People who spoke to evil spirits and worked to curse people were viewed as witches. However, as time progressed and the fear of witches spread and led to witch hunts, all forms of semi-magical practices started to be grouped under the demonizing umbrella term of witchcraft.
I didn't have a specific purpose for sharing this, I just find that fact very interesting.
Respect & Love, These "QUEENS/GODDESS" Spoke Nothing But "Truth & Facts"
I recently became non-religious and I've been so conscious of how we are so far from our African heritage. I'm really learning something now❤❤
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
BBC released this eye opening clip 1 year ago, it doesn't have up to 65 thousand views. Same BBC released a defamatory documentary about TB Joshua and the 3 Episodes combined have over 6 million views in 3 days.
Africans, are out own worse enemy. We are broken, demented, full of hate and poison. Like a stagnant water full of shit and dirt, fermenting more vile and acrid situations for ourselves daily.
But we are a beautiful people. A strong and resilient people, wise in the dark, steady in chaos. I want to see more of this in my lifetime.
We lost our heads when we were defeated. This information age is an opportunity for us to people out heads back to our body so the two can lead us to glory.
Una good morning!

brahmins are trying to eclipse african culture and religion with their indian religion.
Roleplaying as witches without actually knowing any of their original traditional beliefs. Tarot cards are French not African.

Please someone point me into the right direction. I’m victim to oppression and would like to make change.
Tell us more about all the stone worshipping or revering religions in Africa
It’s funny because Christianity began in Africa before it was in Europe.
Africans need science and rationality not more religion
Seems more to be a feminists battle against patriarchy and men than a battle against colonization and religious freedom.
Remember our roots!❤❤
