For the Love of History

In our season finale, we’re rolling out the red carpet for the one and only Lilith—the O.G. femme fatale, and the ultimate “villain era” icon! From ancient Sumerian demon to Adam’s feisty first wife, Lilith’s been raising eyebrows (and blood pressures) for centuries. Think you know her? Think again! Lilith’s story is more twisty than a soap opera plot, packed with scandals, fanfiction rewrites, and more rebrands than T-Swift. We’re spilling the tea on her journey from baby-snatching baddie to empowered icon, unraveling the lore that made her a pop culture staple (hello, Supernatural fans!). Whether she’s inspiring feminist movements or shaking up neo-pagan circles, Lilith has shown us that sometimes, the best way to make history is to refuse to play nice. So buckle up and embrace the rebel energy of Lilith—the gal who put the “myth” in mythology. It’s time to get fierce, folks! 🤩App Info🤩 📚Resources can be found here!📚 ______________________________________ Want more For the Love of History?
