and Pocahontas

In this episode, Melissa and Vanessa take a deep dive into the life and legacy of Pocahontas — or Matoaka — separating truth from myth and legend. We explore who she really was, how her story was reshaped through colonization and pop culture, why Disney’s portrayals are problematic, and how Indigenous voices today are reclaiming her narrative.-------Visit Mixed DNA Podcast on Instagram, Facebook and Threads and visit them online at www.mixeddna.ca for host and contact info as well as official Mixed DNA merchandise.
