Jonestown Part 2: The Peoples Temple and the Journey to Jonestown

Cult Liter with Spencer Henry

In the second installment of Jonestown we’re picking up right where we left off. This week we’re discussing Jim’s time in Brazil where a prophetic vision led him to take his followers out west to California until an exposè was released that included interviews with ex-peoples temple followers and all hell broke loose leading Jim to uproot his followers once again and make their way to Guyana.
