Escaped Nuns from Evil Convents

Conspiracy, She Wrote - Un podcast de Unladylike Media

In the late summer of 1834, a torch-wielding mob burned down a Boston convent for reasons that sound a lot like . . . Pizzagate. Fueled by rumors of kidnappings, papal paranoia and phony exposés, conspiracy theories about nuns in their convents spiraled out of control in 19th-century America. Cristen unravels why that happened and how it set the stage for contemporary culture wars over saving the children.Chapters:(00:00) The Mount Benedict Girls Boarding School(00:40) Rumors and Mob Mentality(01:30) Pizzagate of 1834(03:43) America's Manifest Destiny Era(04:49) The Rise of Anti-Catholic Propaganda(05:18) "Suspicious" Nuns in Their Convents(10:30) The Escaped Nun Genre(11:37) Maria Monk and The Awful Disclosures(15:09) Impact on Education and Public Schools(16:41) Abolition and Anti-Catholicism. . .Inbox: [email protected]: @conspiracyshewrote, @unladylikemediaWebsite: conspiracyshewrote.comPatreon: The Cabal Conspiracy, She Wrote is an Unladylike Media production created, hosted and written by Cristen Conger.
