The city's Roman Catholic roots and its blended French, Spanish, Creole and American Indian populations heavily influenced the rites and rituals that West Africans brought to Louisiana as enslaved laborers. The resulting unique Voodoo tradition is now deeply rooted in the area. Enslaved practitioners in the nineteenth century held Voodoo dances in designated public areas like Congo Square but conducted their secret rituals away from the prying eyes of the city. By 1874, some twelve thousand New Orleanians attended Voodoo queen Marie Laveau's St. John's Eve rites on the shores of Lake Pontchartrain. The Voodoo tradition continues in the Crescent City even today. Rory Schmitt and Rosary O'Neill study the altars, art, history and ceremonies that anchor Voodoo in New Orleans culture."--provided by publisher. 000858040 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000858040 650_0 $$aVodou$$zLouisiana$$zNew Orleans. 000858040 7001_ $$aO'Neill, Rosary,$$eauthor. 000858040 7001_ $$aGlassman, Sallie Ann,$$d1954-$$ewriter of foreword. 000858040 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aO'Neill Schmitt, Rory.$$tNew Orleans voodoo.$$dCharleston, SC : The History Press, 2019$$z9781467137997$$w(DLC) 2018959011$$w(OCoLC)1048935815 000858040 852__ $$bcoll 000858040 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000858040 85640 $$3eBooks on EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1986442$$zOnline Access 000858040 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:858040$$pGLOBAL_SET 000858040 980__ $$aEBOOK 000858040 980__ $$aBIB 000858040 982__ $$aEbook 000858040 983__ $$aOnline 000858040 994__ $$a92$$bISE
