@spooktofficial: Mary Ellen Pleasant made a fortune in Gold Rush San Francisco, and its Black residents called her “Black City Hall.” After her partner fell to his death in 1892, the press called her a voodoo queen. The eucalyptus trees she planted still stand at Bush and Octavia.

She was very much a queen of voodoo. It’s known around the bay. She is respectfully buried in Tulocay Cemetery in Napa where people leave offerings for her daily. She was a trailblazer for women in business and power.
