By the year 1810 the slave trade to the United States came to an end and the population of the slaves begun to increase naturally. This made way to the transmission and the preservation of the religious practices that were African American. The slaves in the slave quarters organized their own invisible institution through signal, passwords and messages that were not understood by the white.
It proved very hard for the slave to preserve their religion in North America. Most of the slaves lived under harsh conditions and they were high death rates, which reduced their numbers. The salves were separated from their families and the tribal groups and this made it hard for them to practice. For those who tried to practice the concrete efforts of the white owners to eradicate the non-Christian customs that saw as heathens made the preservation of the religious tradition difficult. Traditional beliefs, rhythms, isolated songs and beliefs in the in the curative power of roots and the efficacy of the world spirit and the ancestors did not survive well in the nineteenth century.
They called the believers to hush harbor were they mixed freely and practiced their traditional religion. However, they did this in secret because the whites could not agree because they thought that giving the slaves the freedom to perform their religious ceremonies would give them a chance to plot a rebellion against their owners and they feared that. This made the white in America dictate the religion that then slaves were going to follow. They were determined to eradicate the non-Christian customs that the Africans professed.
Maintaining the slaves was important to the whites and if giving the slaves the freedom to practice their religious ceremonies was a threat then they were going to be denied that freedom. The civil war is the central event in the American history consciousness. The historical and the literary elements that were related to the civil war and to reconstruction were many but the main issue was slavery and the slave trade. The co existence of the slave owning south with the increasingly anti slavery north made a conflict likely.

Jan. 26, 2010, Riverside County Board of Supervisors. AnonOrange comments on the Separation of Church and State and on the abuses committed by the Church of Scientology. Jeff Stone responds: “There is nothing my colleagues or I can do to help you with your discrimination against the Church of Scientology.” Gerry Armstrong’s Jan. 5, 2009 letter to the Riverside Country Board of Supervisors: www.gerryarmstrong.org “Scientology is a religion because the US Federal Government says that … only an organization itself can determine if it’s religious or not. It can be a commercial scam, a criminal conspiracy, or an antisocial cult, and it is a perfectly fine religion according to [the US] national government. (…) Virtually all of the fraud, extortion, human rights abuses and other antisocial and criminal victimizing behavior in Scientology churches and affiliated entities around the world is ordered and controlled from the organization’s Gilman Hot Springs headquarters. (…) “(…) Why any Riverside County official would want to benefit the Scientology victimizers to the clear detriment of Scientology’s victims and their supporters can only be answered with deception or corruption.” The international headquarters of the Church of Scientology are located at a compound called “Golden Era Productions”, aka “Gold Base”, in Gilman Hot Springs near Hemet, in Supervisor Jeff Stone’s district.
