Back in college I used to study cults. My mentor in studying alternative religions and extraordinary group behavior was professor Robert Balch, best known as the sociologist who infiltrated Heaven’s Gate in the 70s. With the 25th anniversary of their suicides coming up watch for interviews with Rob detailing some of his knowledge of the group. Meanwhile, this gem of an illustration of Herf Applewhite came across my feed and I thought I’d share. Pretty groovy vibe and I love the artist’s style. She goes by Hellen Skelter and her art can be found here.
