Pocahontas in “Pocahontas”
In typical Disney fashion, writers altered history in the 1995 animated film “Pocahontas” to make the main character fit the typical vision of a Disney princess. In reality, Pocahontas’ real name was Matoaka and she did marry a John, but it wasn’t John Smith. She married John Rolfe after being held prisoner in Jamestown, an event that also wasn’t mentioned in the popular animated film.
