Railroad Spike
 
These fascinating railroad spikes have some powerful history attached to them. The United States of America has about 160,141 miles (257.722 km) of railroad tracks, making it the world's largest railway network. The first railroad systems built in the United States of America were built by a diverse group of workers, including immigrants, indigenous peoples, freed slaves, slaves, and mormons. Before the Civil War and the Emacipation Proclamation was passed, enslaved indigenous peoples were used for laborers by the railroad companies. Working with railroad spikes with your spiritual practices is a symbol of freedom, strength, protection, and nation-building. In Hoodoo traditions, it can be used as an offering to our ancestors for assistance with keeping us on track, building a strong foundation, safe travels, securing a home, and road openers. A friendly reminder that aspiring witches must respect the boundaries of closed practices that explicity state they can only be practiced by people who are descendants of a cultural heritage. Hoodoo, for example, originates from slavery and was created specifically for melanin people.
