Beskrivelse

Coined in the middle of the nineteenth century, the term "voodoo" has been deployed largely by people in the U.S. to refer to spiritual practices-real or imagined-among people of African descent. "Voodoo" is one way that white people have invoked their anxieties and stereotypes about Black people-to call them uncivilized, superstitious, hypersexual, violent, and cannibalistic. In this book, Danielle Boaz explores public perceptions of "voodoo" as they have variedover time, with an emphasis on the intricate connection between stereotypes of "voodoo" and debates about race and human rights.
