Michael Harriot joins Geoff Bennett on 'Settle In'

Season 2026 Episode 45 | 5m 55s

This month marks 100 years since Americans first held the celebration that would eventually become Black History Month. On our video podcast "Settle In," Geoff Bennett commemorated this anniversary with the award-winning journalist and writer Michael Harriot. His most recent book, “Black AF History,” frames Black history not as a counter-narrative, but as the narrative of American history.
