Discover a truly unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of Spiritism through the lens of the African American experience. This comprehensive course offers an in-depth exploration, training, and education on Spiritism—also known as spiritist doctrine, Kardecism, or Kardecist spiritism—a spiritualist practice founded by Allan Kardec in the 19th century.

Rooted in a nondenominational framework with Christian elements, Spiritism has been embraced and enriched by Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican, and other Caribbean spiritualists, along with practitioners of African and Diasporic Traditional Religions. This course highlights how Spiritism intersects with cultural and spiritual traditions within the African American community.

Whether you identify with another religion or are simply eager to explore new spiritual dimensions, Spiritism offers a powerful tool to develop mediumship and cultivate a personal connection with your spiritual court.
