We went to a voodoo ritual in Haiti
by AMERICA With Jorge Ramos, Fusion and Mariana Atencio
When we think of voodoo, we tend to think about creepy dolls, scary spells and sacrifices. But there’s a lot more to it.
For Haitians, this religion is a way of life. It’s been part of Haiti’s tradition since it was a slave colony, and it’s been passed down from generation to generation. Vodouisants, as they are called, believe they are connected to their ancestors and look to voodoo in times of trouble.
