More on: Marginalized perspectives

The podcast episodes provided highlight the importance of actively seeking out and including perspectives from marginalized groups in historical narratives and academic discourse.

For example, the episode 'How to think critically about history - and why it matters | How to Be a Better Human' discusses the pervasive inaccuracies and oversimplifications in how historical figures like Rosa Parks are portrayed, advocating for seeking out primary sources and marginalized perspectives to gain a more nuanced understanding. Similarly, the episode 'Jeffrey J. Cohen and Julian Yates, "Noah's Arkive" (U Minnesota Press, 2023)' emphasizes the need to recover and amplify marginalized perspectives and counter-narratives within the Ark story.

The podcast 'Introducing: Drapetomaniax - Unshackled History with Michael Harriot' also aims to provide a platform for marginalized voices and perspectives that have been overlooked or misrepresented in mainstream historical narratives.
