In the second part of our series on America's Unfinished Revolution, we discuss the agonizingly slow death of Jim Crow by a terribly resistant South, along with some of the instances that gave birth to the Civil Rights Movement, and gave black Americans the momentum to make incredible strides in legally attaining equal rights throughout the country. As the title suggests, this movement continues to this day where it is constantly evolving, and we will continue to educate ourselves and use our platform to help spread the mental wealth, and this series is far from over.

Happy Halloween, spooky babes. Thank you for your patience as I slowly made my big butt back to the pod. I'm here now! <3 

Some houses are occupied by the restless spirits of those who have passed within their walls. They leave signs of their presence if you pay close enough attention, sometimes they even have enough energy to touch you, or move something in your home. Other effects can be more insidious...a dark thought injected into the brain, a cloud of hopelessness left lingering in the air for all to consume.

Both appear to be the case at 6304 Beryl Road, where Esperanza and Gary Belofsky experienced a haunting that in the end, resulted in their story being one of the only cases of death attributed to paranormal activity in recorded history. 

Let's get dark.

Thank you for patiently waiting, my babes. This is the last solo episode for awhile! 
Pardon my cold on this. <3
 
The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God used fear of apocalyptic proportions to persuade its followers to give up all their earthly possessions and devote themselves to the cult. The abusive tactics are similar to many others we've discussed on the show before, and sadly, this didn't end any better than those. The majority of the Movement's followers would lose their lives to the homicidal tendencies of its leadership, being poisoned, bludgeoned, and trapped and a terrible fire, after one too many failed end of days predictions. 

Dive with me down the cult rabbit hole, and Let's Get Dark.

I joined Bruh Issa Murder for a collab for this episode. I lowkey fangirled and highkey geeked out a bit, and in the end, had so much fun and heard some really interesting stories as we scaled down the true crime iceberg, covering murders that, as the gang over at BIM put it, were pretty freakin weird.

Kyron Horman was a second-grader at Skyline Elementary in rural Portland Oregon on June 4, 2010, as families gathered at the school for the annual science fair. He posed proudly in front of his tree frog exhibit as his stepmother took a photo, and then by all accounts, Kyron completely disappeared. 

The search that followed would end up being the largest in Portland history, and the investigation into the circumstances surrounding his disappearance uncovered truly bizarre details of his family life, and his relationship with his stepmother, the last person he was seen with.
