In her article \u201cThe Fight for Black Lives is a Spiritual Movement,\u201d Farrag writes how a protest on June 2, 2020, in front of Mayor Garcetti's house demanding reductions in the city's funding of police, \u201cbegan like a religious ceremony.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>During this protest, Abdullah, who led a group of demonstrators, poured libation on the ground while the group chanted \u201cAs\u00e9\u201d after names of the deceased were called. The ritual of pouring libation, common in many religions, is an offering to deities or spirits of the dead.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>On July 25, 2020, KCRW's Jonathan Bastian, host of <em>Life Examined<\/em>, asked Melina Abdullah, \u201cCan you talk about how you begin a protest?

How do you characterize these moments?\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Abdullah responded, \u201cWe generally ask that people not film the openings of our events and demonstrations. And as part of that is the demonization of the way in which we acknowledge spiritual energy. So, I have seen some of those articles, some of those critiques of pouring libation, which is a centuries-old tradition among African people, acknowledging that when bodies are stolen, spirits still remain. So, there was that consciousness, but more than that consciousness, as we pour libation and engage in spiritual work, we actually don't want that disrupted in any way by filming because we believe filming actually disrupts some of the spiritual energy. All Black Lives Matter meetings and protests begin with the pouring of libation.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Hebah Farrag's article for <em>Religion Dispatches<\/em>, \u201cThe Role of Spirit in the #Blacklivesmatter Movement: A Conversation with Activist and Artist Patrisse Cullors,\u201d points out how the BLM movement \u201cexpands the definition of 'faith-based,' and offers alternate notions of faith, self-care, and wellness as resistance to disrupt a martyr mentality and heal those within traumatized communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During BLM protests, what stood out for Farrag was the \u201cimages of a white-clad black woman burning sage across a militarized police line. Altars using sacred images and symbols from multiple faiths placed to hold space for those murdered. Events ending with prayers for the oppressed. Protests called 'ceremonies' in front of Los Angeles Mayor Garcetti's house, with attendees asked to wear all white.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The African spiritual rituals of If\u00e1 openly practiced by BLM in crowded city and urban streets of the United States may sound like an obscure, rare, and unique religion.

The article also points out that If\u00e1 is not, in fact, a religion, but more of a spiritual system based on three components: Olodumare (the Creator of heaven and earth), Orisa (nature spirits, or gods), and the ancestors.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Black Lives Matter founders are not the only ones bringing these spiritual practices to the forefront of American society and culture. During the 2017 Grammy Awards, Beyonc\u00e9 paid homage to the Yoruba If\u00e1 goddess Osun (or Oshun). Pregnant with twins, wearing a golden gown, Oshun's sacred color, Beyonc\u00e9 channeled the goddess of \u201clove, money, and waterways,\u201d or goddess of water and fertility as some headlines claimed.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <em>The Ringer<\/em> website's article by Taylor Crumpton, \u201cGlory B: Beyonc\u00e9, the African Diaspora, and the Baptism of 'Black is King,\u2019\u201d describes Beyonc\u00e9's visual album released on Disney+ that reinforces the ancestral lineage of black people as divine beings, born from natural and spiritual forces of the universe.
