 \nEven after 300 years\, Salem’s witch trials remain a defining example of
  intolerance and injustice in American history. A new exhibition seeks to 
 ask: In moments of injustice\, what role do we play?\n\nThe extraordinary 
 events of 1692-3 led to the deaths of 25 innocent people\, the vast majori
 ty of whom were women. Organized by the Peabody Essex Museum\, the exhibit
 ion includes tangible fragments from the past that illuminate the real liv
 es of Salem’s residents: those accused of witchcraft\, their accusers\, an
 d those who defended them against legal charges\, risking their own lives 
 and reputations in the process. The exhibition seeks to ask: In moments of
  injustice\, what role do we play?\n\nHighlights include John Proctor’s br
 ass sundial\; a loom that belonged to Rebecca Putnam\, whose family was a 
 major force in the accusations\; and materials from New-York Historical’s 
 collection\, including a 17th-century account of the trials\, alongside co
 ntemporary creative responses from Salem descendants. A gown from fashion 
 designer Alexander McQueen’s 2007 collection In Memory of Elizabeth How\, 
 1692 is based on research into his ancestor Elizabeth How\, who was condem
 ned and hanged as a witch in July 1692. Portraits from the series Major Ar
 cana: Portraits of Witches in America by contemporary photographer Frances
  F. Denny—a descendant from one of the presiding trial magistrates—seek to
  reclaim the meaning of the word “witch” from its historical use as a tool
  to silence and control women.
