2: 42 hahaha you depict whites as bad when you literally just said it was african-haitians who put spells on their own people to turn them into enslaved zombies. you wanna blame whites so badly, but it's all of the world who is capable of atrocities. you are providing misinformation.
just look at how much profit the guy at 2: 03 made, now check again on his melanin.
education and equality is the goal, not scapegoating european americans.

It is noted that some TV series do still pay homage towards the origins of the Vodou belief system every once in a while. I remembered that an episode of the crime drama Bones did an episode based in the New Orleans area showed the older origins of the zombie from the Vodou belief. I don't remember the episode title, but it was within the first few seasons. Watching this video reminded me of that episode when the Bokor was introduced

Interesting to know that the belief in zombies has origins in Africa. Here in Uganda it's widely believed (and for good reasons) that in some districts, there are residents with powerful medicine, who can enchant corpses and unsuspecting sleeping people to dig acres and acres of land for them at night.

Finally! The video needed to be watched by zombie fanatics, some people that are into zombie pop culture should be I can say educated, for its origin before criticizing old fashion zombie types. Kids these days thought zombies are fast and good looking, smh

The Nietzsche quote (at the start of the video) is followed by the ominous:
when you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back into you.
Definitely one of the most badass quotes from a brilliant philosopher

Zombies are an allegory for the NPC people living among us. They spread a disease that fouls the mind and feed on any fresh untainted brain they encounter. You got this completely wrong. Like you always do.

Modern zombie films are also just a substitute for a disaster that allows the viewer to see survivors reveal their true nature of being monsters under tight circumstances.

It makes a lot of sense that modern-day Zombies are a result of culture, traditions or stories passed down being Westernised.
History still has more to teach us.

American pop culture also initially erased the zombies' origins, cannibalizing its original significance and TRANSFORMING THE VICTIM INTO THE MONSTER
What a line.
