Charlie's fascinating talk takes us deeper into the Mayflower story and the stage that had been set around its arrival:
"Further research into the activities of certain key actors and indeed other European countries, should lead us to further question the 'accepted' narrative of the Mayflower Story. This is not to say that the Pilgrims on the Mayflower and what they did was wrong; rather to suggest that they were highly likely to have been a key part of a bigger plan that they were not necessarily aware of - at least the Separatists are unlikely to have known - so were more like an unwitting Trojan Horse.
"Settling a colony in North America had proven extremely difficult for all the countries attempting it, mainly on account of the cultural and linguistic challenges of working with the First Nation peoples, so the Pilgrims probably represented the best chance of making a serious inroad, as they were seen by the first nation people as a small band of struggling families trying to make a small settlement and clearly needed help having lost half their number in the first deadly winter.
The talk connects together some key documents, facts and characters of the time and what they appear to indicate."
