    Interesting. I first heard about Pocahontas when I was a child. I grew up close to the town where she is buried.

      Finished but not perfect! I think that will do!
      0:04- 0:14 In march of 1614, before Rolfe’s letter was delivered, Dayle sailed up the Virginia coast to try again to exchange Pocahontas for the village guns.
      0:18- 0:46 When Dayle’s group arrived, they were met by two of Pocohantas half brothers. Although they were happy to see their sister unharmed, they refused to return the guns. Pocahontas responded with news of her own, “If my father loved me he, he would value me more than old swords guns and axes, so I will stay with the English-who have always loved me.”
      0:49- 0:57 It’s kind of like the Ruth story, “ I want to be with you. Your people are my people and your God is my God.” And that’s basically what she did.
      0:59-1:10 Pocahontas returned in Ryekus (?) and baptized her with a new name from the Bible: Rebecca, the mother of two nations in Genesis.
      1:11-1:23 it wouldn’t be a name that would be given without thought, without Christian thought. So there is a sense in which she is possibly being the person who will join the nations: the Indian nation, the Powatow (?) nation, and the English nation.
      1:29-1:37 in the Powhatan (?) culture, you would be given a name and you would be given other names, according to the different things you’ve don’t in you life. Warriors for example, would be given additional names based on their exploits in war.
      1:39- 2:02 naming her Rebeca was taking on a Christian identity. This young lady is sharp, she knows her place in the world. In a lot more ways than we would normally think of. She is coming from two different worlds. And she joins those two different worlds together.
      2:02- 2:14 I think her relationship with God was a very profound relationship, a very intimate relationship and that she received instruction from Him. And she knew exactly who she was working for.
      2:18- 2:24 The name Rebecca also echos the meaning of her given name. Motoaka or “bright stream between the hills.”
      2:24- 2:39 She ended up being an emissary between two nations. And being apart of the birthing of this nation because she really laid the foundation of that relationship. For that colony to survive.
      2:41-2:50 just a few days after her baptism. Pocahontas and John Rolfe were married. It was a second marriage for both.
      2:51 She had already been married-this is devastating. But it seems to be the few facts that there are, and that’s that William Straightsheet(?), man named Kocoum by whom we know zero. So in a sense she was Rolfe’s second wife and he was her second husband.
      John Rolfe had been one of the colonists that shipped wrecked in Bermuda. And he had a child-a daughter named Bermuda. Who died in Bermuda sadly. And his wife also died, his English wife who came with him.
      3:27- unknown speech. Chief Powhatan in a sense blessed the marriage. He didn’t go personally because he pledged he would never return to the colony, but he did send representatives who were there when she was married. From the Powhatan standpoint this was a pledge of peace between the two.
      3:52 The governor Dale, he talked about her as a knot to bind the peace.
      3:57 America’s first interracial marriage brought the longest truce the colony had ever known. The so called peace-of-Pocahontas lasted eight years.
      4:09 I think everyone saw this as the perfect symbol, the coming together of these two people, this way that there might be some kind of accommodation between the Indian and English worlds.
      4:23 Chief Powhatan had developed his federation largely through marriage relationship. He would take a wife, a daughter of a chief of one of the other smaller tribe, and so there is a whole cultural dimension going on here.
      4:42 I think it was very important that she combined her culture with his culture and showed that it could be successful.
      4:50 as Rolfe’s tobacco enterprise grew so did his family. Pocahontas had a son named Thomas. The Virginia Company asked them to visit England, in order to cultivate new investors for the Virginia settlement. So in the spring of 1660, the Rolfes said goodbye to Reverend Whitaker and set sail for England, where Pocahontas was presented to London society.

    I didn't know this about Pocahontas. I thought she was heartbroken to be away from her family and people. I hope she did enjoy life while being married and living in England. I'm assuming her faith gave her joy. I'd like to see the whole movie.

    I don't think John Rolfe loved Pocahontas. Not by the letter he wrote to Sir Thomas Dale. Unless he knew what a monster thomas dale was and how to write to get her out of that messy situation. But I felt like Rolfe worshipped Dale and was really being demeaning to Pocahontas and how he had to humble his holy self to want to be with her, this person who was beneath him and how sinful it was to want to have her. And how he was asking God's forgiveness and grace, and why can't he help her, can he not help the blind, the hungry and the needy? Like why do you even bother if you think so low of her? Pocahontas unfortunately could have done better. If she wasn't kidnapped and was able to stay with her first husband and family, and the first husband never died, I think they all would have been much better off. Without the english settlers. What good is it doing for them today or in any part of American history?

      I agree with you. This version of her story is no better than Disney's. Both lies.
