History is just gossip! Join hosts Tess Bellomo and Claire Donald every Monday as they break down the juiciest stories from history and pop culture over a cocktail!
You think you know Pocahontas, but trust us, this is not the story you in history class (or from a raccoon and a willow tree...we do love you though, Meeko). This week, we’re breaking down the real history of Pocahontas, the woman behind the myth. From her kidnapping and forced assimilation to how England turned her into a PR campaign for colonization. Which also brings us to the MMIW (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women) crisis. Although we can never give a voice back to all of the MMIW, we can change how society values Native American women. That evolution can only begin with the telling of the real story of Pocahontas, the most famous missing Native American woman in history.
