Druidry as a non-Celt?
Hi! (Sorry if this is in the wrong place.)
So I've been looking into Druidry recently and it perfectly encompasses something I wish to follow (Wicca being a very close second).
So from what I've read the belief system mainly draws from Celtic and British roots.
Which is awesome and all, but as an African-American who knows near nothing about her family history,
I find it hard for me to be a part of something which my ancestors probably weren't a part of.
And even though I remember reading that I don't have to be a Celt to be a Druid,
I still feel like if I don't have a drop of Celtic blood in me then I shouldn't even bother.
I don't want to feel like I'm doing the "cultural appropriation" thing.
None of the African religions really appeal to me either.
Is there some kind of alternative or should I just look elsewhere?
Thanks!
