EP 6: Sage, Incense, and Yoga, the Key Parts of "White Spirtuality"
Description
Hey all! Join Zoe and Chloe for a chill and laid-back episode on the idea of "white spirituality". The two talk about the growing appropriation of certain religions like, Bhuddhism, Hinduism, and several Indigenous cultures! They discuss all things related to the ignorance surrounding things like sage burning and incense, two things that have extensive cultural context. This topic hasn't been spoken about a lot, as oftentimes many people (white people) aren't comfortable addressing the idea that their daily "yoga" session is rooted in Asian culture and their "sage burning" that "cleanses their minds" is a part of the Indigenous community's culture. With that being said, yes you can take part in these traditions, but also recognize that they ARE traditions! Stay aware! See y'all in the next one.
