Carla Pestana Interviewed by Congregational Library and Archives
Dr. Carla Pestana, UCLA History Professor and Joyce Appleby Endowed Chair of America in the World, is interviewed by Dr. Adrian Weimer about her new book, “The World of Plymouth Plantation”. Their conversation touches on the letters of William Bradford, colonial courts and their treatment of Native peoples, and reframing the traditional Pilgrim story as a refugee narrative. Truly fascinating stuff, regardless of your level of familiarity with colonial history.
