12. Nearly Witches (Ever Since We Met...)

Send us Fan MailJoin us on part two of our deep dive into witch trials across time and space. In this episode, Hannah runs through the barest minimum of the effects of white colonization in Africa on witchcraft trials and witch hunting. She talks about whether "witches" are a part of any particular African religion, and ends with some gruesome reminders of how much people really just hate women.
