In the final segment of my lecture on Religious Freedom in Colonial New England, I tell the story of Anne Hutchinson, a religious dissenter in the Massachusetts Colony who challenged gender roles and the Puritan leadership by leading Bible studies, advocating antinomianism, and claiming to be able to see the elect. Like Roger Williams before her, Anne Hutchinson was exiled from Massachusetts. She followed Williams to Rhode Island with 60 of her followers, then went on to New Netherland, where she and her children were massacred by Indians.
