Rethinking Our History
In this new weekly show from the host of The Paranormal Lovers we take a look at some of histories less well known events. Why are they less well known? Because " History is written by the victors."
So we are here to look at the other side of the story, and to give people a starting point to learn about the true history of this country.
Rethinking Our History
Episode 8: Ruby Ridge
And we're back! This week we are going to look at one of the few case in which the US government actually, somewhat, held themselves accountable for a terrible event.
The Weaver family were seen by most as extremist white supremasist. They wanted to get a piece of land they could live the rest of their days on during the apocolypse.
What they ended up getting what a petty neighbor who brought the full weight of the federal government down on their heads.
