Acerca de esta escucha

From acclaimed columnist and political commentator Michael Harriot, a searingly smart and bitingly hilarious retelling of American history that corrects the record and showcases the perspectives and experiences of Black Americans.

America’s backstory is a whitewashed mythology implanted in our collective memory. It is the story of the pilgrims on the Mayflower building a new nation. It is George Washington’s cherry tree and Abraham Lincoln’s log cabin. It is the fantastic tale of slaves that spontaneously teleported themselves here with nothing but strong backs and negro spirituals. It is a sugarcoated legend based on an almost true story.

It should come as no surprise that the dominant narrative of American history is blighted with errors and oversights—after all, history books were written by white men with their perspectives at the forefront. It could even be said that the devaluation and erasure of the Black experience is as American as apple pie.

In Black AF History, Michael Harriot presents a more accurate version of American history. Combining unapologetically provocative storytelling with meticulous research based on primary sources as well as the work of pioneering Black historians, scholars, and journalists, Harriot removes the white sugarcoating from the American story, placing Black people squarely at the center. With incisive wit, Harriot speaks hilarious truth to oppressive power, subverting conventional historical narratives with little-known stories about the experiences of Black Americans. From the African Americans who arrived before 1619 to the unenslavable bandit who inspired America’s first police force, this long overdue corrective provides a revealing look into our past that is as urgent as it is necessary. For too long, we have refused to acknowledge that American history is white history. Not this one. This history is Black AF.

This book has so much information, it could be a textbook. Harriott performed so well you'd have thought his uncle Charles was right there with him

So much information

This book is rich with history and while I love the humor, this needs to be rewritten in textbook form. Not as a replacement to this one, this is gold, but because this is the history lesson our nation needs.

Needs to be a textbook

Nothing like hearing His-story broken dow to the truth of OUR-story. Great research as well.

Excellent Content. Michael is a black Howard Zinn.

This book has done what Black parents have tried to do between keeping our kids alive, battling racism at work and trying to make ends meet with never enough but always enough to share. Thank you Michael Harriot!

Finally!!

The narrator was hilarious. Enjoyed the information provided. Definitely one to suggest to others. He provided information that sparks an interest in researching black people that I never heard of. Thank you brother.

This was one of the Black AF audible readings I've heard to date. The author's retelling of US, I do mean us, history is very good. It intertwines what we been taught and what's has been hidden from us because it was of us. It sheds light on the old classroom history lessons that you fell asleep on because it felt distant somehow but still important enough to not skip class. But to make it short this is an excellent listen that I have shared with my folks for good incite, some clarity, and good old fashion tutelage.

Excellent AF
