In what ways do we misunderstand or misremember Connecticut&rsquo;s past with witches? And how are local witches working to take back the term today? Where We Live looks at the common misconceptions around Connecticut's witch trials; and speaks with two local witches about the communities they've built. Also, what can the source material about the witch trials, however scarce, tell us today?

Produced by Connecticut Public, 'Where We Live' puts Connecticut in context. Host Catherine Shen brings us fascinating, informed, in-depth conversations and stories beyond news headlines.  We start local, but we take time to explore domestic and international issues and consider how they impact us personally and here at home.
