About this episode
Journalist and author Michael Harriot recently joined Geoff Bennett on the PBS series Settle In with Geoff Bennett for a wide-ranging conversation about history, politics, and the way race is discussed in America today. During the interview, Harriot known for blending sharp analysis with humor talked about how narratives about race and American history are often shaped by myth rather than documented fact. Drawing from his book Black AF History, he explained his goal of reframing familiar stories to center overlooked perspectives and challenge long-held assumptions.
