She challenged the Puritan leadership and was banished.
Anne Hutchinson held meetings in which she criticized the colony’s ministers and promoted beliefs (often called antinomianism) that undercut the Puritan clergy’s authority. Her trial in 1637 and subsequent banishment highlighted limits on religious dissent and the role of women in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
