  • Fed a white washed history

    Like all students, I was fed a white washed history about slavery and the Civil War. This podcast is necessary listening for all Americans, all people of the World! My eyes are opened and openly weeping. This country was built off of the backs of the disadvantaged and black people are still being held back today.

  • A Must Listen

    I was immediately hooked as I started listening. For too long these stories have been put to the side and not talked about. We can never forget what happened. Thank you so much Dr. Kidada and team for sharing your knowledge with us all. Knowledge is power.

  • Loved it

    Really interesting podcast. As a white Canadian, I’ve only come across reconstruction history in movies or TV. The podcast felt like I was attending a history class and I really enjoyed having a chance to learn. Thank you!
