SQUANTO: A NATIVE ODYSSEY
Prof. Andrew Lipman
WINNER OF THE BANCROFT PRIZE
American schoolchildren have long learned about Squanto, the welcoming Native who made the First Thanksgiving possible, but his story goes deeper than the holiday legend. In this talk, historian Andrew Lipman explores Squanto's upbringing, his transatlantic odyssey, his career as an interpreter, his surprising downfall, and his enigmatic death. The result is a fresh look at an epic life that ended right when many Americans think their story begins.
