Witch trials. Occasional reminder. Simple personal misfortune lies behind many witchcraft acusations: ill-health, agricultural failure, domestic strife, accidents, etc. The macro themes of gender, wealth, capital, religion, politics, etc then shape how prosecutions develop.

Giles Cory was examined on April 19, 1692. "Giles Cory, they accuse you, or your appearance, of hurting them, and bringing the book to them. What do you say? Why do you hurt them? Tell us the truth. I never did hurt them." buff.ly/4b0DA9U
What are you usually doing when you listen to podcasts?
Read my story for @RollingStone about how the monument came to be and why it's necessary. rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…
@eji_org Having done some genealogy work, I put it to the test. The database had Ramseys all over the country, including my people in Columbia County, GA.
@eji_org, which built the monument, goes a step further: They also built a database to map these names in counties where the people lived. If you know your last name and where your people are from, this database might introduce you to your formerly enslaved ancestors by name.
Not enough people are talking about the fact that in Montgomery there is now a monument to formerly enslaved people that lists every one of their last names as it appeared in the 1870 Census, the first census to record Black people in this country. legacysites.eji.org/about/monument/
