For some, I know it's difficult to grasp that we prayed to Black Women:
"When the courts were filled with people, these curtains were drawn, and the worshippers were permitted to gaze upon the image of the [Black Woman]; to it at once the people begin to pray, and the women rattled their [instrument], and the prayers were followed by an interval, during which the devout crowd engaged in silent prayer and contemplation of the [Black Woman]."
