So two days ago Mollie sent me an article from Rolling Stone dated 1979 (http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/24344365/in_the_valley_of_the_shadow_of_death/). Things have been pretty slow lately so rather than reading my morning paper I decided to read this through (it's pretty long). As I read about the Jonestown tragedy, I had to looking it up on Wikipedia because I hadn't heard of it. How could I not have heard of it, right? I mean it was 6 years before I was born, not 300. Over 900 people died. I think most if not all of them were Americans. I mean, come on, nothing about this in history class? I took AP American history. I passed the test (with a 3, but still). And nothing about this? Was I sick that day? It's just weird... so now I've read a ton about it and watched the footage and I'm just mezmerized by it.
The following is a video PBS made with interviews from some survivors. It's just so weird..,
