Puritan Women Preferred Native Americans to Puritan Husbands
About this episode
The episode discusses how many Puritan women preferred life with Native American tribes over their Puritan husbands, challenging historical narratives.
Today I summarize a Substack article I mention in the episode about how 40-60% of Puritan women kidnapped by Native American tribes actually preferred living with the progressive thinking tribes to their Puritan husbands and did not want to return to their Puritan culture - including lesbian women who were not abominations in Native American culture. Learn more about the false captivity narratives started by Puritan ministers that sanitized what we learned about the expansion of the US settlers westward and misinformed us about what was really playing out in people's lives. John Wayne movies were a total lie in many cases. Please check out my website at www.karentate.net where you'll find lots of interesting and free stuff.
