The History They Don't Teach - Systemic Inequalities & Privilege (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the racial divisions we see today make more sense when we understand the history we were never fully taught? In this episode of From Dirt We Grow , we continue with part 4 of the conversations we avoid series with the topic of the racial divide so prominent in society. Before we can have progressive discourse about the subject, we need to be properly informed with the facts.
