Heritage of Power is the first book to establish the civil-rights
legacy of Mary Ellen Pleasant, called "The Mother of Civil Rights
in California." Did this daring woman of mystery really aid the
abolitionist John Brown and study with New Orleans' most famous
Voodoo queen, Marie LaVeaux? Did Pleasant receive a "Heritage of
Power" from LaVeaux, and if so, what was it and how did it come
about? This updated and expanded work captures the latest research
to answer these questions and to unravel Mary Ellen Pleasant's
story. It also demystifies LaVeaux's life and faith, Vodou/voodoo
-- the unique, traditional religion that inspired the civil-rights
accomplishments of both women.
