Disney’s Pocahontas has memorable songs and visuals, but its impact has blurred the line between history and fiction in regard to Pocahontas’ legacy.
The enduring story of Disney's Pocahontas movie naturally raises a lot of questions regarding what happened to the Indigenous chief’s daughter in real life. While Disney may have popularized Pocahontas’ story, the animated film has been criticized in recent years for its inaccurate and romanticized interpretation of the Pocahontas story.
After Pocahontas had been in England with her husband John Rolfe for months, John Smith visited her. According to Smith, she wrote that she was so overwhelmed with emotion that she could not speak. After she gained her composure, she told him the settlers told her he had died, but her father suspected otherwise because “your countryman will lie much.” While in the animated sequel, Pocahontas gets to choose between her two Johns, in reality, Pocahontas didn't have romantic feelings for Smith.
Pocahontas Converted To Christianity & Her Name Was Changed While learning about Christianity, Pocahontas met widower John Rolfe. According to English accounts, the two fell in love and wanted to get married. Her father consented to their marriage and sent an uncle of Pocahontas to represent her people at the wedding. In 1614, Pocahontas converted to Christianity and was baptized “Rebecca.” Shortly after her baptism, Pocahontas and John Rolfe were married.
