Many of us think of 17th century Puritans as dour, conservative theocrats - nothing could be further from the truth. This video will argue that Puritanism was, in fact, a radically progressive social justice movement that directly inspired the principles of the Enlightenment, and first articulated foundational modern democratic beliefs about human rights, civil liberties, and individual freedom.
Featuring narration by @StefanMilo, @Embracehistoria, @TheHistocrat, @VoicesofthePast, @BrandonF, @HistoryTime, and @CatherineWarr.
