From suspicion, to siege, to collaboration, to all out war - in this episode we uncover the complex reality of the Jamestown colonists' relationship with the Indigenous peoples of the East Coast. What were their first impressions of one another? How did the Powhatan view their dynamic with the British settlers? And how crucial were figures like John Smith, Pocahontas, and John Rolfe to this story?Don is joined once again by Mark Summers, Educational Director of Youth and Public Programmes for Jamestowne Rediscovery. They explore the shifting alliances, conflicts, and consequences that shaped early colonial America, with the help of discoveries made by archaeologists at Jamestown.Produced and edited by Sophie Gee.

Virginie Girod raconte la véritable histoire d'une figure mythique de l'histoire américaine dans un récit inédit d'Au cœur de l'Histoire.En 1607, trois navires accostent sur les rives du Nouveau Monde, dans l'actuel État de Virginie, aux États-Unis, pour fonder Jamestown, la première colonie anglaise d'Amérique, au nom du roi Jacques Ier. Parmi les quelques dizaines d'hommes chargés de cette mission se trouve un certain John Smith. Entré au contact des peuples autochtones réunis au sein de la confédération des Powhatans, il racontera, plus de dix ans après les faits, avoir échappé à la mort grâce à l'intervention d'une jeune princesse appelée Pocahontas, avec qui il aurait ensuite vécu une histoire d'amour. Mais quelle réalité historique se cache derrière une fable construite par un colon pour des raisons que les historiens ignorent ?Personnage dont l'existence est attestée, Pocahontas est la fille du chef des Powhatans. Elle n'a qu'une dizaine d'années lorsque les Anglais débarquent en Virginie. Bientôt, elle joue le rôle d'intermédiaire culturel entre les deux groupes jusqu'à épouser John Rolfe, un colon avec qui elle traverse l'Atlantique pour se rendre en Angleterre. Derrière l'héroïne popularisée par Disney dans les années 1990, l'on découvre une femme incarnant les tentatives de dialogues interculturels ayant accompagné la colonisation.

In April 1613, years of bloody warfare culminated in the kidnapping of the paramount chief Powhatan's daughter Pocahontas. The English colonists in Jamestown offered to return her in exchange for stolen weapons, English prisoners, and corn, but their proposal was met with silence.In the meantime, Pocahontas befriended English colonist John Rolfe. Rolfe poured his energy into cultivating a tobacco crop suitable for export, starting a tobacco revolution that would change Virginia forever.Order your copy of the new American History Tellers book, The Hidden History of the White House, for behind-the-scenes stories of some of the most dramatic events in American history—set right inside the house where it happened.Listen to American History Tellers on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

As a native of the rural part of the Virginia, Iesha Lee recalled that mental health was not something that people thought about when she was growing up. What may have been a hardship then gives her the passion that she needs to serve as a school counselor at John Rolfe Middle School today. “I was immediately drawn to schools and especially underserved populations, making sure that they have all they need,” she said. “The academic piece and also the socio-emotional [piece] look different sometimes in my schools.” But she doesn't think her work is extraordinary. “I'm just the first...Article LinkSupport the Show.
The Criteria crew continue their journey through the works of today's most significant Christian filmmaker, Terrence Malick. The New World is an underrated masterpiece about Pocahontas and the founding of Jamestown in 1607. Starring the 14-year-old Q'orianka Kilcher as Pocahontas, Colin Farrell as John Smith, and Christian Bale as John Rolfe, Malick's retelling of the story remarkably combines realism and historical accuracy with poetry and romance, as all three protagonists explore not just one but multiple new worlds, geographical and interior. With The New World, Malick definitively entered a new stage in his career, particularly in his unforgettable collaboration with cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki. The result is an aesthetic that is humble and receptive rather than magisterial. Rather than dominating reality, the camera seems to enter into it, so that we can contemplate something the camera cannot exhaust. James, Thomas, and Nathan discuss Malick's style extensively in this episode, and make the case for why Catholics studying or making art should not focus only on "themes" to the neglect of form, because style itself conveys a vision of reality. Note: make sure you watch the extended cut or the 150-minute "first cut", not the theatrical cut. This film contains brief ethnographic nudity.

El 5 de abril de 1613 la nativa americana de la tribu Powhatan, Pocahontas (cuyo nombre original era Matoaka), contrajo matrimonio con el colono inglés John Rolfe.
The dew lies softly on the green grass and the sunrise is golden in the early morning sky. I come upon an unspoiled mirror of water. A smooth pebble leaves my fingertips. Yes! I land my pebble perfectly in the bullseye! I watch a concentric circle of ripples reach the edge of the pool and bounce back to the middle where they collide.I wander on.Who knows why we do what we do?I was contemplating Quixote, that strangely enchanting character created by Miguel de Cervantes in 1605.But what was happening across the water in 1605?Having a keyboard at my fingertips, I took an early morning walk backwards-in-time to see what was happening in America while the tormenters of the Inquisition were torturing the innocent people of Spain and wooden blocks were stamping the first edition of Don Quixote onto paper in Madrid.1607: Jamestown, the first permanent settlement by Europeans was founded on the shores of what would later become Virginia.1610: John Rolfe realized he could introduce the tobacco of the Native Americans to the people of Europe. Praise God! This would be the crop that would provide the income that would sustain our little colony on the sparkling shores of this brand-new world.1615: Miquel de Cervantes writes Part Two of Don Quixote, and more characters are carved into wooden blocks to stamp ink onto paper in Madrid.1619: Four thousand Europeans agree to work as indentured servants for a few years in the tobacco fields of Virginia if someone will loan them the money for passage across the Atlantic and give them fifty acres of their own. Among these 4,000 men are Anthony Johnson and 19 other young men of Africa. Each of them work in the tobacco fields to pay off the loans for their passage, then each is awarded 50 acres of his own. Anthony Johnson later becomes successful enough to pay for the passage of 5 more Africans to help him work his land.1650: Thirty-thousand people are working in the tobacco fields of Virginia, including about 300 Africans. Everything seems to be running smoothly and everyone is prospering.1654: Edmund Gayton writes the first commentary in English about Don Quixote. The book is published by William Hunt in London, titled, “Pleasant Notes upon Don Quixot.” Later that same year, slavery is introduced to North America when Anthony Johnson convinces the court of Northampton County that he is entitled to the lifetime services of John Casor. This would be the first judicial approval of life servitude, except as punishment for a crime.As I return from my morning walk, I discover catastophic chaos raging in the pond, the unintended consequences of a pebble tossed. The ripples that bounce off the shores of the pond result in unintended collisions and consequences as all sense of symmetry disappears.Some people say only about 3,000 people were executed by the Spanish Inquisition. Other people say it was more like 30,000. No one has ever claimed it was 300,000. But the pebble of tobacco tossed by John Rolfe killed more than 100,000,000 people in the 20th century alone. We can only guess at the number killed by lung cancer and emphysema during the previous two centuries. Tobacco continues to kill about 8 million people a year.The pebble of slavery tossed by Anthony Johnson resulted in the subjugation of millions of innocent people in America for exactly 201 years. And the waves of that storm continue to crash upon the beach 161 years after the Emancipation Proclamation of Abraham Lincoln.Anthony, Anthony, Anthony… why did you throw that pebble 370 years ago?Anthony, if you are listening, please know that you are remembered as a hardworking and successful man who lived with his loving wife Mary for more than 40 years and...
Henrico County has agreed to purchase one of the most historically significant parcels of land in the United States, county officials announced during a public hearing and press conference Wednesday in Varina. The county will spend .25 million to buy the 2,095-acre Varina Farms along the James River, the site on which John Rolfe developed a new strand of tobacco whose proliferation saved the failing Virginia Colony at Jamestown in the early 1600s and gave rise to the birth of a nation. County officials said Wednesday that they intend to preserve the land and will consider in the coming years...Article LinkSupport the show

Rockefeller Jr. with his idea, and Rockefeller agreed to finance the project.Beginning in 1926, the old buildings of Williamsburg were restored to their original form.First were the college buildings, then the Raleigh Tavern, the government building, the governor's palace and so on.Buildings that had been destroyed over time were reconstructed from plans and descriptions.Soon the restored buildings were opened to the public.Guides,dressed in eighteenth century costumes, show visitors through the buildings and gardens.Visitors can also travel to nearby tobacco plantations.Now tourists who pay admission to visit this wonderful historic town finance much of the work of restoration and conservation.翻译殖民地威廉斯堡在沙漠或丛林中的旅行者有时会看到古城的遗迹。这些城市曾经是大而繁荣的，但有些事情发生了变化。也许气候变得更干燥或更潮湿;也许曾经把商人带到城市的贸易路线现在去了别的地方;也许是敌人摧毁了他们;也可能是疾病或饥荒把人们赶走了。其他一些曾经很重要的城市，随着时间的推移，已经变得不那么重要了。弗吉尼亚州的詹姆斯敦，英国在美国的第一个殖民地，现在只是一个历史遗迹。它最初是弗吉尼亚州的首府。但当1699年大火烧毁政府大楼时，首都就搬到了附近的威廉斯堡。威廉斯堡多年来一直是一个重要的城镇。英国总督住在那里，其中两人负责规划小镇及其建筑。威廉玛丽学院于17世纪90年代在那里建立，是美国第二古老的学院。作为首都，威廉斯堡有许多公共建筑，包括法院、监狱、火药库、州长官邸和政府大楼。当然，也有许多私人住宅。从1699年到1780年，威廉斯堡是弗吉尼亚州的首府。许多人来这里是为了政府和法律事务。它也是一个社交中心，有舞会、集市、赛马和拍卖。总督夫妇为客人提供昂贵的晚餐和娱乐。弗吉尼亚的大多数重要人物都拥有烟草种植园。1612年，约翰·罗尔夫(John Rolfe)首次种植烟草，并出售给英国。很快，烟草种植成为弗吉尼亚最重要的产业。大多数种植园主能够建造大房子，并购买奴隶来干活。据说一位种植园主拥有30万英亩土地和1000名黑人奴隶，还拥有大量资金。种植园主是这个殖民地社会的领袖，他们憎恨英国对当地政府的干预。当英国在1765年向美洲殖民者征税时，是弗吉尼亚人帕特里克·亨利(Patrick Henry)反对他们。他的名言“不自由，毋宁死”激发了美国革命。随着对英国统治的不满不断增加，领导叛乱的是弗吉尼亚人。乔治·华盛顿成为革命军队的指挥官，托马斯·杰斐逊在1776年起草了《独立宣言》。1780年，弗吉尼亚的首府迁至里士满。威廉斯堡现在只是当地一个重要的大学城。威廉斯堡多年来没有太大变化。在二十世纪，威廉斯堡教堂的牧师古德温(Goodwin)博士有一个想法，要把威廉斯堡恢复到殖民时期的样子。古德温向小约翰·d·洛克菲勒提出了他的想法，洛克菲勒同意为这个项目提供资金。从1926年开始，威廉斯堡的老建筑被恢复到原来的样子。首先是大学大楼，然后是罗利酒馆，政府大楼，总督宫殿等等。随着时间的推移，被摧毁的建筑物根据计划和描述进行了重建。很快，修复后的建筑向公众开放。导游穿着18世纪的服装，带领游客参观建筑和花园。游客还可以前往附近的烟草种植园。现在，那些付费参观这个奇妙的历史小镇的游客为修复和保护工作提供了大量资金。

In 1608, Pocahontas (1596–1617) befriended the daring English explorer and adventurer John Smith (1580–1631) and later converted to Christianity. She married the Virginia tobacco planter John Rolfe (1585-1622) in 1614 and bore their son. Pocahontas has entered the pantheon of modern popular culture is a subject of art, literature, and film. Numerous places, landmarks, and products in the United States have been named after Pocahontas. Her story has been romanticized over the years, many aspects of which are fictional, with the most famous being the many celebrated stories told about her and John Smith.

Instead of telling you a story about what we can gather from historical documents, I am just going to actually read you a historical document. If that's not your jam, give it a break and come back for the next regular episode on the African-American bride.In 1549, Thomas Cranmer, archbishop of Canterbury, authorized the first Book of Common Prayer for use in the fairly recently formed Church of England. It included a section called “The Forme of Solemnizacion of Matrimonie.” Cranmer is generally given credit for having written it. He certainly directed that it should be written. The Book of Common Prayer was subsequently revised several times, but I have compared multiple versions and the differences to this section are pretty minimal. The Church of England still likes the 1662 version today, and yes, the bride still promises to obey her husband in that version. The Anglican church in North America revised as recently as 2019, and no, the bride does not promise to obey in that version. But overall, the sentiment and much of the language remain the same. Besides the slight revisions, there were times when the Book of Common Prayer was in favor and also times when it was out. The Catholic Mary I didn't use it, of course, because it wasn't Catholic. Ironically, the Puritans under Oliver Cromwell also didn't use it because it had too much Catholic influence. Sometimes you just can't win.Except that it did win, because overall it was in favor more often than it was out. So as I read this, you can imagine many an English bride on her wedding day: Anne Hathaway who married William Shakespeare in 1582. Pocahontas (not English) who married John Rolfe (yes, English) in 1614. Martha Custis, who was still an English subject when she married George Washington in 1759. Queen Victoria, who married Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in 1840. Poet Elizabeth Barrett who married poet Robert Browning in 1846. I could go on with more and more brides up to and including Kate Middleton who married Prince William in 2011. The following service would have been familiar to all of them, with a few slight variations from time to time.

This episode is about the kidnapping and ransom of Pocahontas in 1613, the romancing of her by John Rolfe, her conversion to Christianity, and their marriage in 1614, which settled the First Anglo-Powhatan War. We look at the two protagonists, their different personalities, their motives, and the extent of their emotional attachment. My primary source for this episode is a very interesting book written only in 2004 by Camilla Townsend, “Pocahontas and the Powhatan Dilemma.” Professor Townsend reads all the various accounts of Pocahontas' life critically, in the sense of thoughtfully, trying to imagine what she must have felt under the circumstances described by the various European men who encountered her and wrote down what they believed happened.

This episode is a close look at the First Anglo-Powhatan War, which began shortly after John Smith left Jamestown forever in October 1609, and ended as a formal matter with the marriage of Pocahontas and John Rolfe. The war was extremely bloody, if casualties are measured as a percentage of original population, and is noteworthy as the first true war between English settlers and the Indians of North America. Many more would come. But, before even getting to seventeenth century Virginia, we fix our gimlet eye on the historical significance of National Beer Day!

================================================== ==SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1================================================== == DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA ADOLESCENTES 2022“UN SALTO EN EL TIEMPO”Narrado por: DORIANY SÁNCHEZDesde: PERÚUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church 05 DE ABRILPOCAHONTAS«Por eso también puede salvar por completo a los que por medio de él se acercan a Dios, ya que vive siempre para interceder por ellos» (Hebreos 7:25, NVI).Pocahontas es una de las nativas americanas más famosas. Nacida en el Nuevo Mundo, entró en escena cuando salvó la vida a John Smith, que luego se convirtió en gobernador del asentamiento de Jamestown. Eso fue hace unos cuatrocientos años, y así es como ocurrió todo.En 1607, cien colonos llegaron a Virginia para construir el primer asentamiento inglés permanente. Por desgracia, las cosas no salieron demasiado bien para la nueva colonia. El hambre, las enfermedades y los ataques de los nativos asolaron a los colonos y su número empezó a disminuir. En uno de sus viajes de exploración por el río Chickahominy, John Smith y otros dos colonos fueron capturados por guerreros Powhatan. Los dos amigos de John fueron asesinados, pero él se salvó y finalmente fue llamado porque una joven nativa Pocahontas rogó a su padre, Powhatan, que no lo matara. La amabilidad que salvaría la vida de John y cambiaría la suya para siempre.Pocahontas acudió a menudo al asentamiento de Jamestown, se hizo amiga de los colonos y aprendió las costumbres inglesas. Finalmente, conocí a John Rolfe y se hizo con él, que era un tabaquero exitoso. Eso ocurrió el 5 de abril de 1614. El oportuno matrimonio garantizó la paz durante varios años entre los colonos de Jamestown y la tribu Powhatan. Pocahontas y Rolfe tuvieron una hija un año después, tras lo cual se embarcaron hacia Inglaterra para ir de visita. Trágicamente, ella fue víctima de la viruela y perdió la vida un día antes de que su barco zarpara de vuelta hacia el Nuevo Mundo.Pocahontas fue una joven bondadosa y características de misericordia, a pesar de que probablemente no conocía a Jesús. Es probable que sus esfuerzos por salvar a John Smith salvaran a toda la colonia, ya que él era el líder natural del asentamiento. El acto de bondad de Jesús al morir en una cruel cruz te salvó a ti, ya todo tu mundo. Sin embargo, Jesús no tuvo que convencer a su padre para salvar nuestras vidas, porque Dios tenía tanto deseo como Jesús de que viviéramos. Por eso Jesús murió en nuestro lugar y ahora intercede por nosotros en los tribunales celestiales. Nos ama tanto que no solo salvó nuestras vidas una vez, sino que nos salva día tras día por medio de su continua intercesión.
Episode Notes This week in 1622... Ever since Pocahontas married John Rolfe, the Native Americans and English had been at a relative peace with each one another. But then, the tobacco trade exploded. As settlers' plantations began to encroach on Native land, Chief Opechancanough and The Powhatan Confederacy devised a plan to push the English back.

After Pocahontas married the entrepreneur John Rolfe, she got to take a little trip across the pond to meet the fancy English king that these white guys were sooo obsessed with. But she was constantly being exploited for her image and what she represented between the two nations; an enduring problem that still clouds her story today.

Pocahontas was a pivotal figure in American history! When the first English settlement of Jamestown was established in 1607, she became enthralled at these newcomers and befriended John Smith (learning some English and teaching him some Powhatan language). Pocahontas, the favoraite daughter of Powhatan, Chief and ruler of the Native Americans in Virginia, later saved John Smith from death by giving him a hug before Powhatan's warriors could strike him down. Defying her father by continuing to engage with and help the colonists who were facing starvation, Pocahontas showed them how to plant crops like corn, squash, beans, and tobacco. Powhatan's war against the English encouraged them to capture and hold Pocahontas for ransom/relief in the form of food and supplies, but Powhatan did not press for her release. Instead, Pocahontas became more familiar with the English, further befriending them. Later, a colonist, John Rolfe, asked Powhatan for her hand in marrriage. Surprisingly, Powhatan agreed and pledged peace since his daughter was then related to the English. This peace extended even further when Pocahontas visited England with her new husband and toddler boy, Thomas Rolfe, her only child. The English graciously welcomed Pocahontas and her fame in England helped spur investment and interest in further colonizing efforts in Virginia and elsewhere in North America. Tragically, Pocahontas died while in England of pneumonia or tuberculosis, but her fame and influence only increased afterward. Due to her empathy and courage in supporting the early colonists of America promoting social integrity no matter the skin color or origin, Pocahontas is considered a HOSS indeed! The Eagle Hoss & Hound podcast is a platform for respect. Respect for the Eagle - the individual with a service background (including spouses). Respect for the Hoss - the Social Integrity Hero from our American past. Plus, the Hound - the common #AmericanMutt - you and me. Follow @EagleIMBUED - J.D. Collier https://linktr.ee/eagleIMBUED

Between the founding of Jamestown in 1607, and the end of the Anglo-Powhatan Wars in 1644, there were a mere eight years of relative peace between the rightful inhabitants of "Tsenacomoco" and English colonisers. Those few years of peace were largely the result of one marriage between two people from utterly different worlds. The descendants of "Pocahontas" and John Rolfe are still here today, like seeds scattered before a whirlwind.
On this day in 1614, Pocahontas married colonist John Rolfe. / On this day in 1958, the peaks of an underwater mountain called Ripple Rock were destroyed in an explosion, so they would no longer pose a hazard to passing ships. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

How old was Pocahontas? In Disney’s movie version, she’s a young unmarried woman - fully developed, falling in love with the adventurous hero John Smith, later marrying the wholesome John Rolfe. In her statue at Jamestown, she’s also depicted as a grown woman - perhaps youthful, but certainly past puberty. They both got it really, really wrong.

And as Suzanne Plihcik, co-founder of the Rational Equity Institute explains, “culture eats structure for breakfast.” Today we speak with Suzanne about her work for the institute and what we can do to not only implement structural changes but to shift our culture. Early in our discussion, Suzanne chats about her background and how she realized that America’s system was preventing many people of color from empowering themselves. To illustrate her point, she shares an example of how black students were denied opportunities within the North Carolina school system. An uncomfortable idea, we dive into how white people are complicit and therefore partly responsible for systematic racism. Suzanne provides details on how our systems have been designed, going back to the early 1600s, to benefit white people and how many people do not acknowledge this. Later, we touch on the differences between mobilizing and organizing, why organizing is key to enacting change, and how our belief systems impact our perceptions. Suzanne then brings decades of experience to bear on what white people can do to fight for racial equity before unpacking the dangers behind the normalization of white culture. Near the end of the episode, we explore the deep roots of Suzanne’s hope, and she gives her take on the effect that Black Lives Matter has had on society. Tune in to hear more of Suzanne’s nuanced insights on how you can help “organize the truth.”Key Points From This Episode: • Suzanne shares how she began her fight for racial equity.• Realizing that systems are preventing people of color from empowering themselves.• How culture “eats structure for lunch” and why culture shifts are needed to enact change. • A shocking example of how racial injustice easily occurs in school systems.• The ‘Moving Walkway of Racism’ and white responsibility within a racist system.• Defining systematic racism; a system set up to disproportionately disadvantage certain groups.• The beginnings of ‘oppression as a strategy’ in the United States.• Hear what Suzanne has learned from 30 years of working for racial equity.• The sense that people in America don’t respect the problem of racial disparity. • Why organizing is the key to shifting America’s culture. • Using our conscious brain to justify unconscious biases.• Why Suzanne focuses on training people who are receptive to her message.• The top things that white people can do to help enact change.• Understanding white culture and why only calling things out does not get anything done.• Hear about the work that the Racial Equity Institute does to “organize the truth.”• Why the Racial Equity Institute is run as a for-profit organization.• Suzanne discusses the root of her hope and reflects on the progress she’s witnessed.

John Rolfe, The Daily Telegraph investigative reporter, joins Michael to discuss his latest investigation that reveals that wealthy investors in water are revelling in returns three times better than the best super fund, but farmers say those gains are pricing them out of the market and destroying manufacturing jobs. Mr Rolfe writes, ‘The Daily Telegraph can reveal Australia’s largest water fund, run by Argyle Capital Partners, delivered an 11 per cent gain in 2019-20. And that was a lean year.’ ‘Since starting in 2012, the $300 million fund has averaged annual returns of 17.7 per cent for clients, who are all certified as “sophisticated investors”, meaning they earn at least $250,000 or have net assets of $2.5 million-plus.’ ‘Meanwhile rival manager Duxton Water, which has been accused of hoarding water, reaped a return of 7.7 per cent in 2019-20.’ ‘By comparison the top super fund made its members 3.8 per cent in the year to June 30 – half of what Duxton achieved and a third of Argyle’s gain.’ See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.

With the advancement of the online world, many subcultures have become a dying breed. Are art galleries the same? In this episode we delve into a cultural discussion with Regional Economic Development Professor John Rolfe who explains just how important art galleries are, especially in this day and age. Professor John Rolfe delves into the cultural economics of art galleries and how these internal didactics contribute to society as a whole on a conscious and subconscious level. We hear about how the presentation of art is synonymous with the development of humanity, and with its rich history of storytelling, to forming new schools of thought in political and religious tendencies we find out how art really is a part of our DNA.
Law of the Land's Gloria J. Browne-Marshall, Professor of Constitutional Law, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, marks the 400th anniversary of the African arrival in the Virginia Colony, 1619 - 2019, as recorded by John Rolfe at The New York City Bar Association November 7, 2019. Jamestown, VA, founded in 1607, is seen as the cornerstone of America. The African knowledge about farming, livestock and metal works was crucial to the survival of Jamestown and the Virginia Colony. However, the legal contribution of Africans in the Colony provides pivotal insights into criminal justice, voting rights, inheritance, citizenship, religion and racial disparities with vestiges that can be seen today. Professor Browne-Marshall discusses the controversy around the legal status of Africans in the colony, early freedom lawsuits and the intricacies of legislation leading to chattel enslavement. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/gloria-j-browne-marshall/support

Pocahontas is remembered as the Native American Powhatan princess who saved the life of Englishman John Smith, married John Rolfe and fostered peace between English settlers and Native Americans. In 1995, Disney released an artistically beautiful animated film showing the supposed events that unfolded between John Smith and Pocahontas. Although Disney is known for creating fictional tales, many people believe that Disney’s account of the life of Pocahontas was a true reflection of past events: the love between Pocahontas and John Smith, the bravery Pocahontas showed when saving John Smith’s life, and the tragic ending when John Smith returned to England for medical treatment. However, this depiction is a far departure from the actual events that occurred, and from the real life of Pocahontas.

Imagine for a moment that you're the son or daughter of a legend-maybe a recording artist or a sports figure-or in history, the offspring of a political leader or hero. Were these sons and daughters judged by their ability to live up to their parent's reputation and status? Were they born with the same gifts? Did their son or daughter status give them access to a world closed off by others? Did they try to follow their parent's footsteps- or reject their parent's reputation and try to follow their own path? In this two part special we'll cover the lives of some very interesting sons and daughters and answer some of those questions. In Part One: The daughter of world famous Indian musician Ravi Shankar, Geethali Norah Shankar, known to us today as Norah Jones; the son of Julius Caesar and Cleopatra known as Caesarian; the son the children of Frank Sinatra, specifically Nancy, Tina, and Frank Jr.;, the son of country music legend Hank Williams, Hank Jr.; the son of George Washington, Jackie Custis; and the daughters of world heavyweight boxing champions Joe Frazier and Mohammed Ali, Coming soon Part Two: The only son of Pocahontas and John Rolfe, Thomas Rolfe, the only son of Ben Franklin, William, a devout Tory; the daughter of Sigmind Freud, Anna, the children of Jacques Costeau, specifically Jean-Michel; Ann Jarvis, who gave us Mother;s Day, with the help of her daughter Anna; the son of Henry Ford, Edsel, and the daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Rose, who convinced and helped her mom to write the Little House on the Prairie books.

Prior to the arrival of Pocahontas in England, indigenous people of the Americas were viewed as cannibals, brutish, and non-Christian. Enter Pocahontas, who arrived in London, baptized and speaking... The latest in science, culture, and history from Smithsonian Channel.
Pocahontas was a Native American woman notable for her association with the colonial settlement at Jamestown, Virginia. Pocahontas was the daughter of Powhatan, the paramount chief of a network of tributary tribal nations in the Tsenacommacah, encompassing the Tidewater region of Virginia. In a well-known historical anecdote, she saved the life of a captive of the Native Americans, the Englishman John Smith, in 1607 by placing her head upon his own when her father raised his war club to execute him. A large number of historians doubt the veracity of this story. Pocahontas was captured and held for ransom by the English during Anglo-Indian hostilities in 1613. During her captivity, she converted to Christianity and took the name Rebecca. When the opportunity arose for her to return to her people, she chose to remain with the English. In April 1614, at the age of 17, she married tobacco planter John Rolfe, and in January 1615, bore their son, Thomas Rolfe. In 1616, the Rolfes travelled to London. Pocahontas was presented to English society as an example of the "civilized savage" in hopes of stimulating investment in the Jamestown settlement. She became something of a celebrity, was elegantly fêted, and attended a masque at Whitehall Palace. In 1617, the Rolfes set sail for Virginia, but Pocahontas died at Gravesend of unknown causes, aged around 20-21. She was buried in St George's Church, Gravesend in England, but the exact location of her grave is unknown, as the church has been rebuilt.[1] Numerous places, landmarks, and products in the United States have been named after Pocahontas. Her story has been romanticized over the years, and she is a subject of art, literature, and film. Many famous people have claimed to be among her descendants through her son Thomas, including members of the First Families of Virginia, First Lady Edith Wilson, American Western actor Glenn Strange, Las Vegas performer Wayne Newton, and astronomer Percival Lowell.[7] Information Sourced From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pocahontas Body Sourced From; https://youtu.be/NodyHa54Xxs Public Access America PublicAccessPod Productions Footage edited by PublicAccessPod producer of Public Access America Podcast Links Stitcher: goo.gl/XpKHWB iTunes: goo.gl/soc7KG GooglePlay: goo.gl/gPEDbf YouTube goo.gl/xrKbJb

He said we are doing our first webcast live on location at St. Columbkille which was established in 1871. It's a landmark in Brighton and today joining us is Fr. Fr. Daniel Moloney, parochial vicar at the parish. He was ordained in 2010 and has been in the parish since then. In June he will be re-assigned in the normal course of priestly assignments. Scot said he learned today that St. Columbkille had originally purchased land for a cemetery in town, but Bishop Williams told the pastor at the time that he wanted a seminary instead, which became St. John's Seminary. Fr. Dan said he came to Boston to become a priest. He was born in South Bend, Indiana, when his father was a professor at Notre Dame. He went to college at Yale, studying computers, but after reading Cardinal Newman, he decided to switch majors to religious philosophy. After graduation, he entered the doctoral program at Notre Dame. Scot asked Fr. Dan what in Newman made him change his major. Fr. Dan said one day in the dining hall, a guy he knew from back home came up to Fr. Dan and his friends and told them they should be doing community service. Another guy, a philosophy major, said the community he was serving was Western Civilization. He began to think about the idea of approaching the big problems of the day. Meanwhile, he was reading Newman, who had been writing to both intellectuals and regular people about how to avoid the problems that society was facing. Fr. Dan decided it was much more fun than staying up lately debugging computer programs. Fr. Dan said what grabbed him was Newman's , (An Apology for My Life), which was Newman's autobiography. He said many people were grabbed by Newman's homilies, particularly those about faith and reason. Fr. Dan said he had had in the back of his mind since his early days at Yale about becoming a priest. He felt Notre Dame would be a better place to explore that idea, whether he was called to the priesthood or becoming a Catholic intellectual, it would be the place to be. Scot said he's been to Notre Dame once and was very moved to see how many students made it a point during their day to stop for prayer. Fr. Dan said in his time at Notre Dame there was a renaissance in the practice of the faith among students, which was just after Pope John Paul's visit to the US for World Youth Day. Fr. Dan said one of his professors described Notre Dame as a state school in a Catholic neighborhood. The students are very pious but there's disagreement often in how to balance Catholicism and student academic life. About 1998, Fr. Dan and some friends got the university to allow perpetual adoration in a chapel and that continues to today. Fr. Dan studied Medieval philosophy. He was particularly interested in St. Anselm of Canterbury, one of the first Scholastics, who died 1109. He was a Benedictine monk who was interested in the interiority of the faith. He developed the common term that theology is faith seeking understanding. A true person of faith uses his intellect as well. Fr. Dan was first interested in Anselm while he was at Yale, and when he got to Notre Dame, he decided to study him for his dissertation. He could have studied Aquinas as the more well-known Medieval philosopher, but he felt that was too common. When he got to Notre Dame, he and others founded a newspaper called Right Reason, which was about calling the university back to its Catholic roots. After about one-and-a-half-years of that, he got an opportunity to go to work at First Things as the associate editor (about 1998). He worked there for about 3-1/2 years under Fr. Richard John Neuhaus. In June 2001, he returned to his doctoral studies at Notre Dame. At age 26, he realized he didn't think he could be editor of First Things itself, he decided to go back. He thought he might be happy as a university intellectual. He graduated in 2004. He dissertation changed focus a little in the meantime. He'd gotten interested in applications of theology and politics and started contrasting the notion of mercy in St. Anselm and the notion of tolerance in John Rolfe, a contemporary philosopher at Harvard. He was the one of the big architects of the idea that politics must be secular and that religion should be private. Liberal philosophers didn't contrasts mercy and justice, but instead formulated it as tolerance and justice. Fr. Dan said after graduating, he was able to go teach on a post-doctoral fellowship at Princeton and at the nearby . He was teaching and doing research. Living at Princeton and being a Catholic intellectual reminded him that academia is often not hospitable to Catholic people of faith. A study he read showed that 80 to 90 percent of the top philosophy professors in the country are themselves atheist. So he had an opportunity to study theology in Rome where he could get a doctorate in theology. He decided that he didn't like being a student in Rome, with the difficulty with his classes in the Italian language and not having the comforts of home. Plus they didn't accept his theology credits from the US so he had to get another bachelor's in theology over two years. So he cut his losses and came home, settling in DC. He got a job at the . They work to develop position papers on legislation on Capitol Hill. His two big areas of focus were AIDS legislation, in which pro-choice advocates were trying to attach abortion funding to AIDS funding for Africa, and healthcare. At the time, no one in the pro-life side were paying attention to the nitty gritty details about how the federal government was funding contraception and he ended up writing position papers to alert pro-lifers to religious liberty issues related to healthcare reform and contraception. Scot asked Fr. Dan if he was still surprised by the contraception mandate from the Obama administration last year. Fr. Dan said he wasn't surprised because those talking points had been in place since the early 70s. That they tried to impose it on everybody was a change. Scot asked if he meant that the mandate would exist but that there would be a generous exemption. Scot asked what led him from DC to Boston. He said many priests without natural homebases tend to look where they could serve the Church the best. Fr. Dan said in Rome he was around a lot of guys studying for the diocesan priesthood and heard how excited they were to serve in parishes. Because of his intellectual background, Fr. Dan had always thought about priesthood in a religious order, but this made him think differently about it. Coming back from Rome, he asked God to give him a great job so that if he decided to become a priest, it wouldn't be settling, but an upgrade. His job at Heritage was great, including meetings at the White House and a bright career future, but the idea of priesthood didn't go away. He had once met Cardinal Sean when was bishop of Fall River and was impressed by his holiness. Fr. Dan hadn't lived in Columbus since 1990, where his family lived, so he didn't feel attached there. He also realized he didn't have many opportunities to pick his own boss. He wanted to go someplace that needed priests. And because Boston had many universities, he felt like God was calling him to Boston. 2nd segment: Scot asked Fr. Dan about St. Columbkille Parish. He said this has seemed to be one of the more historic parishes, among the first. It was first a mission of St. Mary in Brookline or in Waltham. He thinks it was first a mission of Waltham and then of Brookline. Fr. Dan said there was a significant number if Irish living in Brighton and the first Mass was celebrated in someone's home. They began to gather money to build this beautiful church. It's a huge church and could have been a cathedral and some people had wanted it to be the cathedral when the chancery moved out here. All the stained glass windows are based on the Book of Kells. The parish has had few pastors. One was here for 40 years. They built a school and has had many, many alumni. The church now has a shrine to San Donato, an Italian bishop, when Italians began to move here and later one of the first Spanish communities in Boston was Cuban immigrants, who built a shrine to Our Lady of El Cobre. The lower church is as big as the upper church, seating 1,100 people and even has its own pipe organ. Through much of the 20th century, they had packed Masses upstairs and downstairs every Sunday, along with the other two parishes in Brighton. It gave the property that became St. John Seminary and the property for Mt St. Joseph's School. Brighton has been significant in the history of the Archdiocese. Scot said the church cost $80,000 back when it was built. That would be $1,454,000 today. He noted that the patron saint is St. Columba and Columbkille means Columba of the Churches. Fr. Dan said Columba is a Latin word that means “the dove”. It was probably a religious name and he was one of the three patron saints of Ireland, including St. Patrick and St. Brigid. Fr. Dan said St. Columbkille was responsible for the death of 1,000 soldiers. He copied an illuminated manuscript and the abbott took it from him when he was done and St. Columbkille said it was his own property. His clan fought the abbott's clan. After the battle, he realizes he was an idiot. He was exiled from Ireland and vowed to convert as many pagans as had died in the battle. So he went to the island of Iona in Scotland to form a monastery. From there, the monks spread out into Europe and converted the continent. Scot said George Weigel is speaking here tonight. He asked Fr. Dan what makes Weigel a great Catholic intellectual. Fr. Dan said Weigel is a wonderful writer. His first biography of Pope John Paul II, Witness to Hope, is one of the great books of the 20th century. It's almost a history of everything in the last half of the 20th century, but as long as it is it never runs out of steam. Weigel has also written extensively on just war theory and politics. He also has a very engaging speaking style. Scot said his columns in the Pilot are always very engaging. He defends the Church as strongly as any layman in the Church. Fr. Dan said he also strongly believes the Catholic faith is true and not just for Catholics. The Church has something to offer everyone and not just Catholics. Scot said Weigel has a new book coming out in February that connects to tonight's topic on . Fr. Dan said Weigel has been developing this theme for a long time, especially from the writings of John Paul II. At the beginning of John Paul's pontificate people had begun to sour on Vatican II, but JP II has given a new look at Vatican II to bring to the fore the idea that all Catholics are to bring the Gospel to the world in a new and vigorous way. Scot read from the beginning of Weigel's new book. Weigel says the Catholicism of the 21st century will be a culture-forming counterculture. Fr. Dan said Weigel wrote in First Things in the 1990s on John Paul II and the evangelization of culture. He wrote that you can evangelize people by staying in the Catholic shell. You have to show people that you can be a full-fledged Catholic and be part of the culture. You can talk about what people read and watch on TV and the like, speaking to those things from a Catholic perspective. If the culture doesn't create inspiring works, then you have to create a counterculture. If it becomes big enough it becomes the culture. You present an attractive way of living your life that isn't just going to church on Sunday.
