For multiracial practitioners, this is part of our identity as Americans and as witches of this country.
As practitioners seek to revive and reconstruct the paths of our ancestors, we’ve begun to trace the interconnected roots of witchcraft folklore as it emerged in the Americas, from the blending of people and their faiths. The traditions of people and their cultures stretch and intersect across the country and this is where the unique traditions of American witchcraft and magic are born. Hags, Devils, charms and spells witchery is rooted in our deepest superstitions and folklore.
Our ancestors may not have agreed on how they saw the world or the magic that inhabits the world, but they shared a very real fear of Witches. It’s a complicated history one of uncertainty and fear, displacement and enslavement, merging and migration.
