“I tell you I don’t care how many screams you hear, I don’t care how many anguished cries … death is a million times preferable to ten more days of this life. If you knew what was ahead of you, if you knew what was ahead of you, you’d be glad to be stepping over tonight.”
The People’s Temple was a cult lead by a man named Jim Jones. Jones originally set up his church in San Francisco, California, but there was so much outside interference since they were in a hugely populated area. To make his followers more withdrawn, he arranged a settlement village in Guyana—a small country on the northern coast of South America. For months, Jones attempted to negotiate a mass exodus of his Jonestown followers to the Soviet Union but once Jones had killed a U.S. congressman and a reporter who had come to investigate Jonestown, he claimed that the Soviet Union would not take them. Rather than have his cult torn apart, Jones arranged a mass suicide. However, many of the followers were forced to take the poison at gunpoint, making the incident a case of murder as well. All 909 followers, including Jones himself and nine others in the nearby city and airstrip, died from poison in this 1978 mass suicide. Two hundred seventy-six victims were children.
