“Melanie W. Part 2”

In this conclusion to our two-part interview, we continue our conversation with Melanie Wilking, a dancer and content creator featured in the Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult documentary. Melanie and her sister Miranda, formerly known as the Wilking Sisters, created content together until Miranda was drawn into the 7M organization. Melanie and her parents raised awareness about the situation through an Instagram Live. In this discussion, Melanie shares her journey since the docuseries, her experience with Shekinah, and the emotional impact of Miranda’s choice to stay. She also highlights the family's ongoing efforts to reunite with her sister and the important lessons learned along the way.

 

Forgive Me For I Have Followed continues the exploration from Netflix’s hit Dancing for the Devil documentary series by delving deeper into the personal stories of those affected by Robert Shinn, Shekinah Church, and 7M Films. We will focus on the experiences of victims and their families, address urgent questions raised in the documentary, and gather insights from former members and dancers. Our goal is to uncover strategies for combating abuse and ensuring that controlling, cult-like communities are held accountable for their actions.
