Michael Harriot Reverses the Lens of History

FEATURING MICHAEL HARRIOT - What happens when a Black analyst and historian applies the same sort of historical and cultural lens to white Americans that whites have viewed Black people through? For example, what if, rather than “intrepid conquerors,” the first white settlers of the United States were more accurately viewed as incompetent thieving cannibals? That’s the kind of approach to history that Michael Harriot takes us through in his new book, BLACK AF HISTORY: The Un-Whitewashed Story of America.
