🧙‍♀️🍂 THEY WEREN’T WITCHES. THEY WERE WOMEN. 🍂🧙‍♀️With Halloween approaching, our latest display in our Women’s Centre takes a look at the history behind the witch trials and the women who were accused, persecuted and, in many cases, executed.From the 16th to 18th centuries, thousands of people across Europe and colonial America were accused of witchcraft. Our display explores how fear, superstition, social prejudice and vulnerability contributed to accusations and persecution - with women among those most likely to be targeted.It also highlights the stories of some of the women who found themselves accused, reminding us that behind the label of “witch” was a real person with a life, a family and a story.The title of our display says it all: They weren’t witches. They were women.As we approach Halloween, we hope the display encourages those who come through our Women's Centre to look beyond the familiar Halloween imagery and reflect on the real human stories behind the history. 🖤#TheyWereWomen #WitchesWereWomen #Halloween #WomenInHistory #Herstory #WomensHistory #StaffordshireWomensAid #WomenMatter #HistoryMatters #RememberTheirStories ...
