“A chatty guide to African and African diasporic spiritual practices that emphasize ancestral traditions and connection, known loosely as juju.…Those looking to broaden their spiritual horizons will find plenty to celebrate.” —Publishers Weekly “Juju Bae crafts ‘everyday medicine’ to nurture healing connections with one’s ancestors, one’s community, and one’s own sacred self.” —Professor Yvonne P. Chireau, author of Black Magic: Religion and the African American Conjuring Tradition “Juju Bae is a cultural force; a walking, talking crossroads that reflects hoodoo’s evolution into a twenty-first-century sensibility.” —Arthur Flowers, author of Mojo Rising: Confessions of a 21st Century Conjureman “The Book of Juju is a course in spiritual recovery and remembrance. Juju weaves a tapestry of well-informed knowledge and concrete steps for cultivating the spiritual power within and for aligning oneself with one’s ori—or destiny.” —K. Zauditu-Selassie, MFA, DA, author of African Spiritual Traditions in the Novels of Toni Morrison
