Black Girls Do Politics: Black History Is Not Optional

We want to hear from you! Send us a textBlack history is not optional — and in this episode of Black Girls Do Politics, we break down why it’s under attack. From book bans and curriculum rollbacks to political language that labels Black history as “divisive,” this conversation unpacks how erasure shows up in real time and who benefits when Black stories are minimized. Joined by regular guest host Summer Nettles and narrative strategist Anneshia Hardy, we explore how history shapes power, why these fights are happening now, and what Black women and communities can do to protect our stories. Because when history is erased, rights follow — and remembering is an act of resistance. Black Girls Do Politics ya'll!
