While we couldn't confirm that Queen Charlotte was a woman of color, we can tell you about two women who were and who lived aristocratic lives in Georgian and Victorian England: Dido Elizabeth Belle and Sarah Forbes Bonetta. There is a Little Ears warning for the beginning of the second half, the story of Sarah Forbes Bonetta, for violence and trauma to a child. Those who are sensitive or have little kids in the room should skip or preview and pick up at about the 48:00 minute mark. If you would like to join us in London in September either on our Field Trip or the Thames Dinner Cruise, visit https://www.likemindstravel.com/the-history-chicks-field-trip-to-london-2/ for details! We hope to see you there! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
