Did Pleasant receive a \"Heritage of Power\" from LaVeaux, and if so, what was it and how did it come about? \u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Daya Kay Communications, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47033267290352,"sku":"9781892516046","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781892516046_p0.jpg?v=1763609913","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781892516046","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
