WTF, I'm just realizing Yoruba culture is celebrated in Brazil

Omo, a whole poem dedicated to Iansã (we call her Oya in Nigeria)? This is mad! The timeline won't show us this side of Brazil where they actually teach it in schools. Love to see it 🇳🇬🤝🇧🇷

[Paty Parra @patyparraeppgg]

@Volagy I use our roots in poems. On Brazil, we learn at school that our culture was build with africans, europeans and indigineous people. We love all of this!

[Volagi @Volagy]

@patyparraeppgg Wow, writing a poem for Iansã (Oya) is wild. We don't get to see this side of Brazil on our timeline at all. Big respect for preserving the roots! 🇳🇬🤝🇧🇷

[Volagi @Volagy]

@greyangelll Exactly this. Calling the culture 'satanic' was the media strategy used to execute the erasure. I actually just did a breakdown on my timeline of how they mistranslated Esu to mean the Devil to make this happen. We are looking at the exact same blueprint

You are defending a 150-year-old colonial PR spin. 'Esu = Devil' was a deliberate mistranslation used to sell a new religion. Esu is actually the Orisha of the crossroads. The fact you believe this shows how perfect their media strategy was.

[Iwu Nna @DaddyTwinzz]

We all know that Esu is the devil. There's no amount of white-washing that can change that fact. Even in Yoruba, Esu is evil.
We have seen how people are worshipping the devil from ages, it didn't start today. Some have come out to openly worship Lucifer in today's world.
This post right here tells you how the devil is actually in control of the world.

[Volagi @Volagy]

@DaddyTwinzz Imagine being a victim of a colonial PR spin and thinking you are dropping deep facts on the timeline. Esu being the devil is a missionary mistranslation used to sell a new religion. Read about the actual Yoruba cosmology before typing

Good morning Yourubas in the world

💯❤️

[Volagi @Volagy]

It gets deeper. If you watch Anitta online, she constantly defends Yoruba roots. While systemic erasure of Black culture happens in Brazil, she uses stages like the Latin Grammys to make sure the originators get credit.

[Volagi @Volagy]

@gaywhisthledown This is a masterclass. "Brazil with a Z" is the global media PR package. "Brasil with an S" is the actual reality on ground. The distribution machine only exports the Z because it’s easier to sell. Appreciate the breakdown! 🇳🇬🤝🇧🇷

[Volagi @Volagy]

@BOMB3242 Show you evidence of voting? Lol. The global media machine doesn't wait for your PVC to tag you. When they erase our culture over there, they erase it under the 'Black' umbrella. Follow the narrative, leave semantics

[Volagi @Volagy]

@AllyTraon Not most people

[Volagi @Volagy]

@madam_suzie_ I'm just realizing 😔

[Volagi @Volagy]

Kind of true....

if you check it very well

If your feet doesn’t touch Yorubaland maybe Lagos or Abeokuta, you will never go global from Nigeria…..Apostle Joshua Selman declares to the world especially to the okpa nation.

@eunitt0 yes, listening to it now 😀
it's really impressive, she's Good with her craft

[Volagi @Volagy]

@16joab Colonialism demonize our religion which is kind of ridiculous. Then see foreign nationals doing this makes me very happy
