In this episode of 92NY Talks, join the cast and creator of Freeform’s hit supernatural thriller Motherland: Fort Salem — Eliot Laurence, Taylor Hickson, Jessica Sutton, Ashley Nicole Williams, Amalia Holm, Demetria McKinney, and Lyne Renée — as they talk to The Advocate’s Tracy Gilchrist about the third and final season of their hit series. Launching from an alternate American history — in which the witches of Salem ended their persecution by agreeing to fight for the US government — Motherland: Fort Salem is more than a fantasy show. It’s a bold, speculative reimagining of American power, a queer love story, and an epic action series.
