CULTEFACTS
Cultefacts is a project with the aim of understanding how coercive systems reshape identity- and how people rebuild themselves afterwards
Cultefacts is a survivor-led documentary that explores what that process feels like and what it takes to reclaim a sense of self afterwards. D F Walker survived 8 years of coercive control in the 70s and 80s and was under the influence for 3 years after leaving.
Cultefacts is a roadmap to help people personally recognize and mitigate coercive control dynamics or to help others they know.
Validates confusion, not shame. It also demonstrates how an intelligent open enquiring mind can fall under the influence
Articulates How ordinary needs for belonging and purpose can be leveraged into control

My name is Dido Walker. Here is the reason for my launching this Cultefacts podcast . This isn’t a party‑political argument. It’s a reflection on cult-like control dynamics and their effect on individual, crowd and social identity— based on lived experience jn a US cult movement —about how power works when myth replaces accountability. - And what it has to do with right here and right now. So I hope you will stay with me!
