  • Struggling with the colonial lens

    I'm struggling with this podcast. The colonial bias is strong. The story of Pitcairn, and indeed the British and French in the Pacific, is one of brutality and inhumanity. So far, this podcast glosses over that and organises silence around it. The British cop is justifying statutory rape because it was a relationship that is mind-blowing in its thoughtlessness and ignorance. I’ll keep trying, but I’d rather hear a Uri of the locals tell this story.

Not only are there not new episodes there are only the few episodes that are currently wondery + only. Somehow they are bumping to the top of the Apple podcast cue without actual new episodes.

  • Pitcairn visitor

    I visited Pitcairn in 2003 when the trial was in process. I was sailing on the Picton Castle. It was a bit of a sham since the men were led out of jail to be able to assist with the long boats to get our crew and goods on land. They also participated in the island festivities with our crew. My husband grew up with a romantic notion of Pitcairn. His grandparents had sailed there 7 times on their circumnavigations and they are featured in the island museum. My husband’s middle name is Pitcairn. W... more
