The #MandelaEffect was coined to represent the phenomenon in which people all over the world swear that they remember South African President Nelson Mandela dying in prison in the 80s – complete with vivid recollections of news coverage and an emotional interview with Mandela's widow – when really he died in 2013 at home. The term is now used to refer to a situation in which a large number of people believe that an event occurred when it did not.

Listen in as we ask world-renowned cognitive psychologist and expert on human memory #ElizabethLoftus (whose expertise in the field has been used to assist with criminal cases ranging from that of Harvey Weinstein, to OJ Simpson, to Ted Bundy, to Michael Jackson) about #falsememories, how they might explain the Mandela Effect, and how they can play a role in criminal court cases.
