概要
Support Humanism Now and Join Our Community!
Micki McAllen, known online as Apostate Barbie, spent 30 years as a Jehovah's Witness before leaving in 2021. Now based in the UK, she uses social media to raise awareness of high control religious groups, support others navigating life beyond faith, and advocate for an end to mandated shunning.
Topics we cover
✔︎ What life inside a high control group really looks like — and how coercive control works without physical force
✔︎ The Norway Supreme Court case challenging government funding of the JWs over shunning practices
✔︎ How to rebuild community, identity, and agency after leaving a high control religion
