We have our first special guest! The hilarious Melina joins us to help us learn all about Mexican Witchcraft, AKA Brujeria. In this episode we talk about how the colonisation of Mexico by Catholic invaders forced indigenous beliefs on to the fringes of acceptable society until it became an act of resistance. Today, Brujeria is, for many, a form of reclamation of culture. Many thanks again to Melina for giving us her insight and such a fascinating episode!
