An Hour With Mother - Mother Meets the Charles Manson Cult
play

11/28/17 • 48 min

In 1970 mother had a bit of a run in with the FBI. While she hadn't really done anything wrong, she was forced to wait in a jail in Los Angeles for a month until she had her trial. It just so happens that three of the Charles Manson Family women were also being held in this jail: Susan Atkins, Leslie Van Houten, and Patricia Krenwinkel. Mother tells the story about how she ended up in prison, her experiences with the infamous murderers, and how she dealt with the entire ordeal.

Today's episode is a fun one, as well as slightly educational. The African-American experience in Louisiana, and many other parts of the country, were unique when it came to medicine. Due to racism, black people could not simply go to a hospital or a doctor. Instead, they found home remedies, and yes, voodoo. Mother explains this history and some unique stories surrounding her ex-husband and her father. Enjoy.

Being from South Central Los Angeles, Mother had never experienced any type of lavish lifestyle. That all changed when she met Reverend Ike. Before she knew it she was eating caviar and picking out dresses from fancy Beverly Hills stores. She has a fondness from this time period in her life that I hope everyone gets to experience at some point in their lives. She is smiling throughout this entire episode, and even though it's only audio, you can see it.

Mother has had many difficult times in her life, one of which was when she was homeless. After her husband left her, took her car and all of the money in her bank account, mother was left without a home and without much help.
