"During the live show, Juju Bae and special guest Trinice Iya Fabunmi—a priestess within the Orisha tradition—took listeners on what she and many other Afro-Indigenous spiritualists call a “spiritual revival,” giving them a taste of the concepts that Juju Bae delves into each week.The two explained that fervent drumming and the sounds of the diaspora, for example, were all part of ways we’d communicate, celebrate, mourn, and inspire each other on the continent of Africa. 

They later charged audience members to think about specific moments in Black History and examine how to connect each fabric back to specific deities. With a little thought, we could all recall rituals surrounding birthdays, altars, and even funeral traditions. Juju Bae gave concrete examples of liquor being left out for spirits, which Wallace connected to photos she’d captured of Baltimore stoops covered with bottles, candles, and balloons to honor those who have passed on.”
