Episode Details

Ever wondered how history shapes our present? Let's dive into the untold stories of resistance against slavery.  In this episode, we explore Carrie Gibson's insights from her book *The Great Resistance*, highlighting the rich tapestry of enslaved people's struggles across the Americas. It's not just about plantations—enslavement permeated all aspects of life, from urban settings to the docks. The interconnectivity of the Americas reveals a complex history where cultures collided and resistance flourished. These stories of resilience deserve to be known and shared!
