This week on The Remedial Scholar we are discussing the chaotic and tumultuous trials of Salem Village in 1692. Join us as we uncover the contextual basis for what occurred in the early colonial settlement of Massachusetts as neighbor accused neighbor and children broke into fits at the sight of the so-called witches. We explore the religious fervor, social dynamics, and economic factors that set the stage for one of the darkest chapters in American history. Discover the courtroom drama, as the accused faced a justice system driven by hysteria rather than evidence. We'll also explore the aftermath, questioning how a community so rooted in faith could succumb to such madness.
