Weetamoo

Wetamoo is often unknown to most people in American history, probably because she was around just after the far more famous Pocahontas. Weetamoo grew up knowing she would lead her tribe, but English settlers were making the world a much more dangerous place, bringing sickness and war, causing her to go head to head with them at the head of an army. come and learn about the most famous warrior and leader you probably haven't heard of!
