A vintage woodcut-style poster featuring Harriet Tubman in the center with her fist raised, flanked by Frederick Douglass on the left and Sojourner Truth on the right. Below them, bold text reads: “JUNETEENTH.” A caption underneath states: “On June 19, 1865, enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, were informed of their freedom, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation.” The bottom of the image reads: “Hoodoo Almanac 2025.” The ornate border includes flourishes, a crescent moon, botanical elements, and a small conjure bottle. The entire design is rendered in sepia tones on aged parchment.

John Brown: Radical Abolitionist or Militant Freedom Fighter? John Brown was a fervent abolitionist whose unwavering commitment to ending slavery made him one of the most polarizing figures in American history. Born in 1800, he was deeply religious and viewed sl...

To those who saw slavery as a moral abomination, his actions were necessary. To those invested in maintaining the status quo, he was dangerous. His legacy, then,is shaped by views that the fight against slavery required gradual change or decisive action. #hoodooalmanac creolemoon.com/blogs/hoodoo...

A historical photograph, digitally colorized, depicting a young Black child sitting inside a birdcage while two white children sit outside, smiling and interacting with the cage. The setting is an outdoor area with laundry hanging in the background. The image evokes strong themes of racism, dehumanization, and historical oppression. The Belgian Congo, now the Democratic Republic of the Congo, was under Belgian rule from 1908 to 1960. During this period, indigenous populations were often subjected to inhumane treatment, and such images serve as a stark reminder of the colonial atrocities committed. This photograph has been documented in the archives of Cegesoma, the Centre for Historical Research and Documentation on War and Contemporary Society.

The photograph is part of the "Collection Monsieur Van de Meerssche: Congo Belge, [1950-1960]" and was taken during Belgium's colonial rule in the Congo. The image depicts a black child in a cage, observed by two white children, reflecting the deep-seated racial prejudices of that era. #crossroadsu

Image of a hand holding a wishing stone. The stone is red jasper with a thick white quartz band going around the stone, slightly off center.

This is the cutest little wishing stone ever. Wishing stones are stones with a naturally occurring, unbroken line that goes all around it. Trace your finger around the line, close your eyes and make a wish. 🪄 #witchmadness
