”Before We Were White” will be highly contentious revisionist history at its most unflinching. ”Before We Were White” will tell real stories of heartland America, drawing upon facts and evidence buried deep underneath the “official story”. Everything from outlaws, river pirates and prairie bandits, to Cherokee midwives and witch trials, fake eugenics, colonial-era Muslims, snake handlers, African-American cowboys, the Lost Colony of Roanoke, Jewish hillbillies, “sporting girls”, Mountain Gypsies and Creole Irish will get their turn under the magnifying lens. Whether your interest is in history, politics, ethnology, folklore, music, genealogy, or just a cracking good story, you will find something here to astonish and amaze, entertain and educate. Forget everything you thought you knew about North American history. Forget everything you thought you understood about the ethnic roots of heartland America.

Episode 3: Matrimony and Mayhem
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.
