Acquaint yourself with the Comedy Central’s Badass Bitches of History. This series features the forgotten women who followed their dreams, stood up to the patriarchy, and took matters into their own well-equipped hands. In this uncensored episode, we find comedian Jenny Zigrino introducing you to the tale of religious freedom hero Anne Hutchinson (played by Pollyanna McIntosh, Jadis on AMC’s The Walking Dead). This well-educated female was a Puritan spiritual adviser and an important figure in the Antinomian Controversy. Sure, she may have been banished to Rhode Island for accusing local ministers of preaching a “convenant of works” and talking to God, but she was an inspiration to those fighting for religious liberty in the American colonies. May this both famous and infamous lady leader in civil liberties and religious tolerance be an inspirations to future generations! Enjoy Badass Bitches of History: The Wicked Tough Anne Hutchinson!
