Welcome back to Season 3 of Hoodoo Plant Mamas! This season we're doing things a little differently and are focusing on writing in the Hoodoo tradition. Each episode will feature a different Black writer who utilizes or discusses Spirit in their work. In this episode, we discuss Lucille Clifton's spiritual writing and get into some other Black women writers who also have work inspired by Spirit.
