I once read in a witchcraft book – it might have been one by Margot Adler or Sybil Leek, I’m not sure which – that mentioned only Europeans could benefit from & practice Wicca, others had to practice the magickal belief systems of their own races/colors. It kind of ticked me off even then, as a young teenager, and for years I stayed away from reading about any type of magick that wasn’t Voodoo/Hoodoo, etc. Then I decided, the heck with it. I would do whatever I wanted, and that included working with all types of magickal systems no matter their origin. I still feel that way today. By the way, I love your YouTube videos and spells! I used the fecal spell on someone who had wronged me and yes, it worked!

Hi John

I hear and understand what you are saying – as in the mundane world, this is an ongoing issue (and a contentious one in the USA). In the world of MAGIC we do not have RACE issues. Race does not matter in the spiritual planes. That is the point.

Their races DO matter, it’s what rules our daily lives and our lens of the world. It has a deep root of importance, especially since it has been something tied so deeply to abuse, violence, and the very real possibility of death. It’s not segregation to realize the importance of people’s races and cultures after hudrends, if not THOUSANDS of years of colonization and bloodshed. It really does matter and saying It doesn’t dismisses POC and their voices in favor of apathetic privilege.

When we fail to bat for our team we are soon taught what it mean’s to become a pet without purpose as the praise end’s, and the nose thumping begins. Have we overcome so much persecution only heap it upon ourselves again through pseudo-Christian fantasies about equality willingly handing over our position through political support to feed the masses loaves, and fishes? And… world peace.
