Witch Hunt 15: Liberating a Woman Accused of Witchcraft with Berrie Holtzhausen

from The Thing About Witch Hunts · host Josh Hutchinson and Sarah Jack

In this episode, we travel to Namibia to meet Berrie Holtzhausen, founder of Alzheimer's Dementia Namibia and advocate against witchcraft accusations. He tells the story of how he met Ndjinaa, a woman chained for 20 years after she was accused of bewitching people and livestock to death. Learn how Berrie worked for Ndjinaa's freedom after discovering she was living with dementia, a condition which Berrie and others have found is commonly mistaken for witchcraft.
