A ‘’REVOLUTIONARY SUICIDE’’ ON THIS DAY

On November 18, 1978, Peoples Temple founder Jim Jones led
hundreds of his followers in a
mass murder-suicide at their
agricultural commune in a remote part of the South American
nation of Guyana.

Many of Jones’ followers willingly ingested a poison-laced punch
while others were forced to do so at gunpoint. The final death toll
at
Jonestown that day was 909; a third of those who perished were children.

Jim Jones (below) was a charismatic churchman who established
the Peoples Temple, a Christian sect, in Indianapolis in the 1950s.
