Fearless Pirate Anne Bonny - Episode 5

  • Summary

  • When you imagine a pirate, who do you see? A drunken, bearded scallywag sailing the high seas in search of gold, greed and girls? That’s what most pirates are remembered for. But, Calico Jack is famed for something else: because female pirates served under his command. And although those women are infinitely more interesting than the male crew, few know their story. Who this?

    Anne Bonny is a fabulous reminder that women have been challenging the ever-pervasive patriarchy and rewriting gender roles since day one (in her case, 300 years ago). Tune in to find out more!
