EP 393 - Mina "Margery" Crandon and Selena Not Afraid

Donna dives into the strange world of Mina “Margery” Crandon, one of the most famous spiritualist mediums of the 1920s. With claims of séances, ghostly voices, and even some bizarre ectoplasmic displays, Margery captivated audiences and critics alike—until skeptics like Harry Houdini stepped in to put her to the test. Kerri shares the devastating story of Selena Not Afraid, a bright young woman from the Crow and Nakota Nations whose disappearance in January 2020 drew national attention to the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) crisis. Selena’s tragic death not only left her family and community heartbroken but also sparked greater awareness and advocacy for Indigenous women who too often go missing without answers or justice.
