Can't please anyone...
A modern Pocahontas is a person who can move from group to group, camp to camp, people to people, with personal ease. There is likely to be an ability to function as a message bearer, interpreter, or even minor diplomacy. The modern Pocahontas has a degree of naivete. She has no hesitation in associating with a 'different' group.
But how others view the modern Pocahontas.... there is the rub.
Think of any position that puts between two parties with apparent conflicting interests. Pocahontas can go back and forth between the two and actually be of great assistance in the negotiations. But for some reason, neither side neither trusts, nor admires her efforts.
