Episode 16 - The Twelve Tribes
from The CULTure Hosted by The CULTure
Anna and Mark discuss Eugene Elbert Spriggs and his 1970s religious movement called The Twelve Tribes. An attempt to prepare for the second coming of Christ, Eugene and his group go old testament with a long list of rules to follow including no personal wealth, community parenting and discipline and a dress code. Anna is out on the low-key child labor while Mark is looking forward to visiting a Yellow Deli in the near future. As always thanks to the cult fam for listening, and remember, dont drink the kool-aid.
