About this listen

Ava Grey explores the chilling psychological and physical manipulation tactics Jim Jones deployed over two decades to ensure his followers' compliance, revealing how incremental commitment, isolation, manufactured emergencies, and rehearsed "White Night" rituals transformed independent individuals into victims of one of history's most devastating tragedies. This episode dissects the systematic architecture of coercive control that made resistance nearly impossible for over 900 people at Jonestown, offering crucial insights into manipulation patterns that extend far beyond this single event.
