Who We Are

CULTure Club Secrets is curated by Shareece Williams, a cultural analyst and storyteller with a passion for diving beneath the surface. With a background in TV/Film, philosophy, art, and abuse advocacy, Shareece Williams is dedicated to spotlighting voices often overlooked, especially those who’ve faced adversity and come through with resilience. This Substack aims to reveal not only the allure of niche communities but also the personal journeys of individuals who find refuge, purpose, and sometimes healing within these subcultures.

What to Expect

Each week, we deliver in-depth explorations that blend cultural analysis with powerful stories of survival and transformation. Through these stories, CULTure Club Secrets aims to highlight the strength and perseverance within communities that often stay under the radar. Here’s a look at what you can expect:

  • Survivor Stories – These are the heart of CULTure Club Secrets. From former cult members finding freedom to artists thriving in underground movements despite challenges, we share firsthand accounts of resilience. These stories reveal not just survival but the ways in which people rebuild their lives within supportive, if unconventional, communities.

  • Exploratory Deep Dives – We dig into the roots of subcultures, examining how historical movements influenced today’s countercultural groups. From punk rock to cyber goth, we explore how marginalized or fringe groups shape identity, support each other, and sometimes serve as lifelines for people going through difficult times.

  • Insider Interviews – Get unique insights from individuals who’ve lived through extraordinary experiences, whether it’s escaping a controlling group or finding a voice in a marginalized community. These interviews go beyond surface-level curiosity, sharing the motivations and transformations that define these journeys.

  • Cultural Critique and Analysis – Through a thoughtful lens, we analyze symbols, language, and behaviors that define each community. How do they reflect resilience, solidarity, or a shared sense of purpose? CULTure Club Secrets is here to answer the questions many might not think to ask.

Why CULTure Club Secrets?

In a world where mainstream culture often overlooks the stories that don’t fit neatly into its narrative, CULTure Club Secrets brings these experiences to the forefront. We’re here to challenge assumptions, broaden perspectives, and inspire empathy by sharing the untold stories of individuals and communities who’ve forged their own paths, often against the odds.
