"It could happen anywhere, at any time." The chillingly familiar history of the infamous Salem witch trials is here brought into modern context, showing how bias and blame have worked in tandem throughout history, to disastrous effect. As the townspeople become increasingly fueled by suspicion, the accused become the accusers, naming names to save themselves. Could something like this still occur today? Of course. But it's up to all of us to stop it.
