She has land: WITCH. She's too pretty: WITCH. She's a healer: WITCH. She has no power, voice, or agency? Fine. But sometimes also WITCH.

Thank you! I did a deep dive on the Salem witch trials last year and told my partner, "Babe, it was a land grab." And now my eyes are wide open.

Yes, the witch trials in England and Scotland were the same. The trials happened concurrently with the Enclosures Act. Until this time, most towns and villages were divided into small packets of land that ppl owned and farmed themselves, with a communal 'Common land' that everyone in a village could use to graze animals, collect firewood and for itinerant workers/merchants to camp on. Women were often responsible for the management of this common land for the good of all. As world trade began to expand as a result of European colonialism, British aristocracy saw the opportunity to provide wool and other trade goods such as wheat to these new markets. But this needed land. So the largest landowners/aristocracy designed the Enclosures Act to enable a land grab of places that had been managed for generations by women, and small scale farmers. Colonialism started on the British ppl first.

Aaron Mahnke’s podcast Unobscured Season 1 did a super in-depth, intense deep dive into the Salem witch trials and it was honestly so eye opening, not just to the trials but everything that led up to it, the politics, the people involved & their backstories etc
