Description

Dig into how the infamous Salem Witch Trials began and why they remain a cautionary tale of the dangers of groupthink and scapegoating.

--

Youve been accused of a crime you did not commit. Its impossible to prove your innocence. If you insist that youre innocent anyway, youll likely be found guilty and executed. But if you confess, apologize, and implicate others, youll go free. This was the choice facing those accused of witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts in the 17th century. How did this happen? Brian A. Pavlac investigates.
