Historian Camilla Townsend separates fact from fiction in the life of the Powhatan "princess"

As what Disney says no,and the common,myth .

The name a nickname if that

Yes, probably a nickname or something as Pocahontas means "mischievous one".

That link is pretty much what I understand along with some new stuff here and there.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention the Pocahontas thing. Even though I prefer the original,.. the sequel is more historically correct.

It has been so long since I have seen the 2nd one I forgot what it was about, but I do remember they are back in England!

 

[HeIsRisen2018]

No worries. Didn't mean to confuse ya!

Hmm,.. how to respond. I could be mature about this and tell you hakuna matata,.. or I could be completely immature about it and stick my tongue out at you and tease you by saying that you did too! Lol! I think that I will go for the latter. :tongue

Yep and she is with John Rolfe instead of John Smith which always disappointed me for the film version of it because I always believed that she had better chemistry with John Smith.

I prefer actual accounts. as always there is always some history to explore.

Maybe I will have to see it again some time.

If you're talking about the sequel it really wasn't as good as the first,.. and I hope you know that I love you and I was just messing with ya before. :wink

the lost colony is tied to Jamestown. an unverifiable account of 4 survivors. man I need to go that place.

 

[HeIsRisen2018]

Anyways, I just wanted to say really fast that we've gotten way off topic so,..

One of the beautiful things I've noticed here is that there are so many people from so many countries from so many races from so many cultures speaking so many languages eating so many different kinds of food dressing so differently and looking so differently...it's like this fantastic cornucopia of the human race.

That's good to be able to experience cultural diversity. I love wearing Hawai'ian sarongs, they are so fun to wear. Many different ways to wear them, too! I don't yet have a muumuu, though =/ I am sure you see it plenty on the islands =)

Still craving that Hawai'ian food. When are you going to send me some? Lol jk.

I know that a Muumuu is a kind of dress, but I'm not really all that sure what a sarong is though.

A sarong is a wrap that can be used as a skirt from my understanding. I have seen sarong style shirts, too. They are good for covering bathing suits. They come in all sorts of pretty patterns! Collecting them can be addictive.

Hawai'i has a day with no new cases and continues to open up. A 90% recovery rate and one of if the lowest death rate of any state in America. The people practiced exemplary hygiene/social distancing. The social distancing is contrary to the Hawai'ian lifestyle as they're a very affectionate people. Liberal use of HCQ in the early stage of COVID-19 cases saved lives and Hawai'i kept from following or even allowing politicizing of treatment. They quietly went about the business of saving lives and following other country's leads in care/treatment. Hawai'i is now in negotiation with Australia/New Zealand on exchanging travel privileges in a closed loop. Even though tourism is the economic life-blood of the islands, they chose lives over money and sacrificed greatly to protect those precious lives. No COVID-19 rampaging retirement homes here. I can certainly see how the Lord led us here.
