Ifa, as an earth based spiritual practice,  has much in common with Native indigenous practices which is why we include it,here, on songs for the lodge. This connection between Native Indigenous and Africans is sound from a historical perspective as scholars have long documented that Africans came to the Americas long before Columbus and in doing so brought and mingled their traditions with the local populations.  It is because of htis connection that Africans were able to run into the “bushes” of Florida and live with and marry  among the Seminole and Cree People without  harm.
