SUMMARY:Mojos\, Mermaids\, Medicine\, and 400 Years of Black Women’s Magic
DESCRIPTION:MOJOS\, MERMAIDS\, MEDICINE\, AND 400 YEARS OF BLACK WOMEN’S MAGIC: The Office of Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion is promoting this virtual event from the Danbury Library. \nFeminist philosopher Dr. Lindsey Stewart’s book\, “The Conjuring of America: Mojos\, Mermaids\, Medicine\, and 400 Years of Black Women’s Magic\,” tells the stories of Negro Mammies of slavery; the Voodoo Queens and Blues Women of Reconstruction; and the Granny Midwives and textile weavers of the Jim Crow era. These women\, in secrecy and subterfuge\, courageously and devotedly continued their practices and worship for centuries and passed down their traditions. \nConjure informs our lives in ways remarkable and ordinary — from traditional medicines that informed the creation of Vicks VapoRub and the rise of Aunt Jemima’s Pancake Mix\, to the original magic of Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” (2023)\, and the true origins of the all-American classic blue jean. \nFrom the moment enslaved Africans first arrived on these shores\, conjure was heavily regulated and even outlawed. Now\, Stewart uncovers new contours of American history\, sourcing letters from the enslaved\, dispatches from the lore of Oshun and other African mystics. The Conjuring of America is a love letter to the real magic Black women used\, their herbs\, food\, textiles\, song\, and dance\, used to sow rebellion\, freedom\, and hope. \nJoin us to take part in the magic and celebrate the legacy of America’s founding Black women. Register for free today at https://libraryc.org/danburylibrary/107155/register \nAbout the Author: Lindsey Stewart is a Black feminist philosopher and an Associate Professor of philosophy at the University of Memphis. She is the author of The Politics of Black Joy. Her work has been featured in Blavity\, Signs\, Hypatia\, and the British Journal for the History of Philosophy\, and she holds a 2021 Michael Beaney Prize. She lives in Memphis\, Tennessee.
