Course Description

Instructor: Jeff Milsteen

We’ve been hearing a lot about “witch hunts” the last several years, but did you ever think about the origins of that phrase?  Most think the phrase originates with the Salem Witch Trials, but its historical roots run much deeper and actual witch hunts continue to this day.  Join Jeff Milsteen for this one-day course exploring the history, hysteria and spectacle (and even occasional humor!) of witch hunts.  Please note — determining whether Donald Trump is in fact a witch being hunted is beyond the scope of this class!
