July 14, 2022 50: Murder at the Polls in Hazlehurst, MS
On this episode of Common Mystics a champion for equality is shot dead at the ballot box in 1883 Mississippi. John Prentiss "Print" Matthews seemed an unlikely hero for civil rights. Born to a wealthy slave holding family, he would go on to represent the political interests of both white and African American farmers in Copiah County during a divisive time. Reconstruction (1865-1877) had failed to secure equal rights for freedmen. By the 1880's, white supremacists had seized power and wielded it to intimidate those who would vote against their interests. But Print Matthews would not be intimidated. Listen in as Jennifer and Jill give voice to one man who stood up for equality in the face of terror.

Listen in as the sisters use their psychic impressions to unravel the legend of this controversial figure, and yes, give him a voice.

Neither had we. But the events are truly unfathomable. Led by slave driver Charles Deslondes, enslaved sugar plantation workers nearly overthrew the French plantation owners.
