This was a spur of the moment video, I stumbled across a video interview of one of the leaders' many wives and I was sucked into her harrowing story. She had gone through so much while dedicating her life to this cult. Black people not only join cults, they also create them.
Velvet, a familial outcast, emerged from a tumultuous past, marred by neglect and solitude. An early mother figure at the tender age of 11, her life's trajectory set the stage for susceptibility to the manipulations of cult leaders.
The cult, a byproduct of the digital age, found fertile ground in Velvet's mind during her difficult college years. Nature Boy, the puppeteer behind the scenes, deftly exploited her dissatisfaction, drawing her into a vortex of radical ideologies and control.
Within the cult's confines, Velvet became a pawn in Nature Boy's game of dominance. His coercive tactics manifested in physical abuse, isolation, and calculated control over her relationships.
