'White Folk’s Voodoo,' describes how white attitudes and behaviors has affected Blacks throughout the ages. It describes this attitude and behavior as white folks’ voodoo. It suggests that white folks’ voodoo is not your ordinary type of Haitian voodoo, but it consists of racism, discrimination, bigotry, and prejudice; disfranchisement, and unequal treatment; lack of equal access to housing, education, and employment. These are only a few of the many attitudes and behavior attributed to white folks’ voodoo. It describes this situation from before the slave trade to the present-day, and how it contributed to white folks’ voodoo. It indicates that this white folks’ voodoo is difficult to differentiate from Haitian voodoo. In fact, Haitian voodoo, white folks’ voodoo, and schizophrenia can sometimes be interrelated. It also suggests that white folks’ voodoo can cause schizophrenia. This notion of white folks’ voodoo is only a concept in the mind of the author.
