Americans added their own twist to white slavery narratives around the turn of the century. They placed a greater emphasis on the threat of immigration.

In the early 20th Century narratives about “white slavery” led to creation of the White-Slave Traffic Act of 1910, which was wielded by the U.S. federal government to police sexuality. These narratives also helped fuel the growth of the FBI in its early days. But before these narratives arrived in the United States, they first grew in Victorian England. To help expose the horrible truth of the underground sex trade, Evangelical feminist activists fighting for better treatment of prostitutes and ...

Henry Herbert Goddard’s work studying the supposedly degenerate “Kallikak” family made him world famous. In the words of a teacher at the Vineland Training Center, it also made Emma Wolverton, aka Deborah Kallikak, the “World’s Best Known Moron.” But the acclaim Goddard achieved for his work faded as psychologists discovered fatal flaws with his research. However, before Goddard’s work was dismissed as worthless by the scientific community is was cited as justification for eugenic programs both ...

Mesopotamian gods? Or ancient alien astronauts? We explore the "Anunnaki", a term familiar to anyone who has watched the History Channel, Gaia TV, or Ancient Aliens. But the tradition of this so-called "ancient astronaut theory" was actually popularized in the late 60s by a Swiss hotel manager turned best-selling author. From there, it flourished into a hugely popular belief system and industry. Subscribe for $5 a month to get an extra episode of QAA every week: http://www.patreon.com/QAnonAnony...
