PREVIEW: History Is US

American Public Media
About this episode

We want to turn you on to a new show that you should consider adding to your podcast queue: History is US. It’s a 6-part documentary podcast from C13-Originals Studios and Jon Meacham — the team behind the 2021 Webby Award-Winning Best Podcast Series “It Was Said.“
It’s written and narrated by Dr. Eddie Glaude, who is a friend of Truth Be Told. You might remember him as a Wise One from Season 2. Eddie is an award-winning author and professor of African American Studies at Princeton University – and he’s such a deeply reflective and generous thinker.
It’s a limited series that aims to help us understand how we got here, and how we can all use history to clarify the choices before us.
