#21 - MILLER LIED: Reconsidering The Salem Witch Trials
🕑 Added 2020-11-02 20:50:58 +0000 UTCDimitri and Khalid discuss (and challenge) the common mythos of the 1692 witch trials in Salem, Massachusetts, the ubiquitous belief in witchcraft during the 17th century, the slanderous lies spread by Robert Calef against Cotton Mather, Arthur Miller's butchering of historical fact, the evidence that some of the accused *were* actually practicing witches, and various interesting synchronicities with Grover Furr's controversial "Khrushchev Lied" book about the Soviet "show trials" of the late 1930s.
