The American Revolution Was About Freedom? with Dr. Victoria Alexander-Thompson

Host Orli Matlow sits down with educator and content creator Dr. Victoria Alexander-Thompson to talk the contradictions within America’s #1 export: Freedom. Victoria goes deep into the history of slavery in America, enslaved people’s resistance, and what’s missing from textbooks and “Hamilton.” She also explains where and how to find hope, and they send a message to people in the year 2317— the year when we will be further away from the legal discrimination of Black people, then we are close to it.
