What type of Vodou are you talking about. From your spelling are you asking about New Orleans voodoo? Are you asking about Haitian Vodou? Dominican Republic Veinte-Uno Divisiones? Vodoun in West Africa?
If you are interested in Haitian Vodou you can check the website of the humfort I belong to. A list of articles written by Mambo. This is a house in the U.S, that follows Haitian regleman. http://www.sosyetedumarche.com/vodou_inf...
You can also check our the site of my Mambo initiatory Mama. Her house is in Jacmel, Haiti. http://members.aol.com/racine125/index1....
I do know that New Orleans type Voodoo is very secretive and very hard to find information. Sallie Ann Glassman, Prietess Mariam, are good people to try and contact about the religion.
Veinte-Uno Divisiones from Dominican Republic is very hard to recearch. Harder than NO because it still is not that common in the U.S. Good luck on your research.
