Segment 4 & 5 – Feminism’s Dark DNA
“Although seemingly a new fad, witchcraft and the black arts are as old as time. Witchcraft has a long history of being a way for women who feel powerless to exert their power and to control others — especially those they feel oppress them. But like any kind of occult, the practitioner gets in deep and then finds it difficult to get out.” Dr. Gress has written about this and joins Sherry today.
