This week on Women of War Hannah and Nicola decide to include women in the sequel and visit a woman who played an important role in the American Revolutionary War - Molly Brant. Join us as we get a bit philosophical to learn about how Mohawk leader Molly helped convince the Haudenosaunee Confederacy to support the British Loyalists in the war and why. May or may not include numerous Hamilton lyrics.
This episode contains references to violence and atrocities committed against First Nations Americans during colonisation and the American Revolutionary War. It also contains some coarse language, it may not be suitable for all listeners.
This podcast is recorded on Wurundjeri land and we pay our respects to elders past and present. Sovereignty was never ceded. This episode is set across modern day New York and Canada, or on the lands of the greater Haudenosaunee Confederacy, one of the longest-lasting participatory democracies in the world, which continues to this day. We also pay our respect to the nations within the Haudenosaunee Confederacy.
