Today Sara brings us a new Series for the fall (to the delight of spooky season lovers everywhere): Women They Called Witches! Throughout the entire world, and pretty much ALL of recorded history through TODAY, women have been accused of being witches and paid the price for it with their lives. One historian notes that the witch trials served as "the most important institutionalized femicide in the history of mankind" Sara gives us a very brief overview of the history of the "witch trials" to lay the foundation for what's coming in the next few months, including the REAL story of what caused the Salem Witch Trials (hint: it wasn't Goody Osburn with the devil). We've got a good feeling that this is going to be our best series yet! — A Broad is a woman who lives by her own rules.
