FEED DROP: Historical Homos - A Queer History of Witchcraft
/Check out this episode from our friends at Historical Homos all about the Queer History of Witchcraft! In this episode, they ask and answer questions like when did “wise women” in the woods become “evil hags”? How did colonialism export Europe’s hag-phobia worldwide? And how did queer people turn witchcraft into a symbol of defiance, glamour, and spiritual fulfilment?
