Best of Season 1

 

We’ve wrapped our first season of UnTextbooked!  Our producers have explored race, food, piracy, gender, medicine and so much more.  

In this episode, UnTextbooked editor Bethany Denton shares five of her favorite moments from the season:

  1. How a Black teenager and his young lawyer changed America's criminal justice system. 

  2. Most Americans eat like kings without realizing it. 

  3. Damnation to the governor and confusion to the colony.

  4. Germany addressed its racist past. Can America do the same?

  5. History fails when it ignores the BIPOC women who made it.
