Unpopular opinion: I think he made a good decision. And if we talking spirit, you can't heal a land you don't own. Buy that house/land, free them spirits, feed them spirits, and rework the karma of the land. https://twitter.com/geezlais/status/1276133633636564992
I also think it's weird that many people object this idea cause they either don't think the man has the knowledge to appease spirits or they think that spirits are gonna haunt this man. So I have a question....
Ancestors toiled the land. Ancestors built the house. Ancestors Never got to enjoy the luxury THEY built. Ancestors enslaved on their own land. Would YOU want someone living in a house you built? So is buying back ancestral land not part of the process?
Were there no plans to buy back our lands? Our plantation houses? Our graveyards (which lowkey be one and the same)? There is not a land you can walk on in this country where our blood wasn't shed. If you gonna own it, blood Gon come with it.
They name forts after soldiers. They buy and own all the sites where their blood was shed. There is power in that. If my ancestors jump off a boat, I won't be happy until I own the ocean they drowned in. It's crazy seeing Spiritualists not seeing the value in this purchase

Realest shit I ever wrote. This story emphasizes this line the best. They worked to OWN that house.

I wanna also say that you should reevaluate how you percieve spirit if you work in a realm where your ancestors would harm you to prove a point. Y'all really think our ancestors worked this land so that we'd never own it. Plantation land and houses SHOULD be black owned ANYWAY.
Since we talking about magic and spirit and ancestors let's discuss and have the conversation y'all ain't have yet...
What if those ancestors put the fire in him to buy that house? What if they were the ones who whispered in his ear and said "do not let up until it's yours"?

Y'all aint stop to think that they led him there. The miracle of this purchase is just that....a miracle.
I believe he had help in getting there. Even the story reads as him being possessed by the need to OWN that house. That's ANCESTRAL!!!!
