When we use the term African religions, we are also referring to spiritual systems developed by Africans outside of the continent. These systems include:
- The Nuwaubian movement
- The Nation of Islam
- The 5 Percenters (Nation of Gods and Earths)
- Santeria
- and Moorish Science Temple
There are elements of truth in all of these spiritual systems. Your path could lie in any one of these – or none at all. It is therefore your mission to find the path that speaks to you the most truthfully, and then walk that path unapologetically!
