Text Box: *NOTE: The word “Slave” as it is used in the Vodoun Religions of West Africa, refers to the ancestral spirit sects created by the families and ethnic Vodoun groups whose family members were sold into slavery. Many of these enslaved were priests, as well as lineage Vodoun adherents. The ancestral spirits of many enslaved in the Diaspora went back to their Vodoun lineages in Togo, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Benin and elsewhere. Those slave orders of priests/priestesses are a very spiritually powerful group, and now dominate the Vodoun religions in West Africa. To such an extent, that in West Africa, it is considered a "badge of honor" to identify oneself as "Tchamba" or "slave spirit child." Slave Spirit lineages are collectively known today as the "Tchamba" or and many of the Vodoun lineages are matrilineal. “We feel that it is very important to the Diaspora, especially those of the Vodou lineages, to have their Tchamba Slave Ancestral Stool and shrine installed no matter their religious affiliations.” In the Vodoun of West Africa, one will find this shrine in the house of a Christian, Muslim, and other non-traditionalists. If one is a descendant of slaves, or have had their family member sold into slavery, one is not considered spiritually complete until this ceremony is first performed. This is one of the shrines that Mama Zogbé has been called to
