Episode description

“No self-respecting government is going to teach you a history that’s going to allow you to have the tools to change the system.” 

Paul Ortiz, historian and author of the book “An African-American and Latinx History of the United States” joins the show to discuss with Mike and Jack about the plethora of historical contributions Brown and Black people have made in America. He also touches upon our own self-hatred and why it still affects us, why the educational system doesn't favor Black and Latinos, and why Hollywood is a bastion for white propaganda and how Broadway's Hamilton is the last thing you should revere as fact.
