A song by Iron Maiden which explores the colonization of the Americas and the prime example of how Iron Maiden songs can provide a good history lesson.
Run To The Hills quotes:
"White man came across the sea, he brought us pain and misery"- This highlights the Indigenous' viewpoints on the arrival of Europeans in the Americas.
"Chasing the redskins back to their holes, fighting them at their own game"- This foreshadows the trouble that white people were going to commence with the Native Americans.
"Selling them whiskey and taking their gold, enslaving the young and destroying the old"- This is self explanatory. Native Americans were the original slaves before many died of smallpox, which Europeans had already built herd immunity to which is why Europeans resorted to enslaving West Africans.
