This week’s episode is all about The Woman King–the film starring the iconic Viola Davis who delivers an outstanding performance as Nanisca, the general of the Amazons. The movie explores the rich history of African spirituality and its impact on the Dahomey Kingdom, an ancient empire of West Africa and it centers on the female military unit of the Dahomey Kingdom, known as the Amazons, who fought fiercely for their land and people.

Despite its popularity and cinematic excellence, The Woman King was snubbed by the 2023 Oscars. In this episode, we give The Woman King its due as a brilliant work of historically inspired cinematic art created for and by Black Women.

As both spiritualists and movie lovers, your hosts, Halicue Hanna, and Andi Anderson, dissect the movie's portrayal of these incredible women and their place in African history through the lens of their own unique practice of hoodoo, conjure and personal study of other African traditional religions and spiritual practices.

It's not just the history lesson that makes this film special - it's the magical realism and powerful themes of African spirituality and Hoodoo that truly elevate it. We discuss the use of Hoodoo in the film and its cultural significance, as well as the connections to the Mississippi Mystics and their unique brand of Hoodoo.
