Louisiana religion with African roots (6)

I believe the answer is:

voodoo

(Other definitions for voodoo that I've seen before include "Black magid from West Indies" , "Religious cult involving witchcraft" , "In the air" , "Religious cult, involves witchcraft and animal deities" , "Form of magic" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and the LA Times.
