It’s a common joke, but also a bit frustrating that Black History Month is the shortest month of the year–by two days. The good news is that we are allowed to talk about Black history the rest of the year, too! In fact, given that Black history is American history, and given how much Black history is suppressed and rewritten and denied even today, let alone for the last 400 years, I think it’s worth sticking with the subject into March and beyond.

Instead of short videos, PushBlack delivers longer deep-dives into subjects for Black History Year, a 40-minute podcast. I’m linking YouTube, because that’s what I’ve been doing this month, but you can subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts. The YouTube videos are chapterized, which is nice.
If 40 minutes is too long for you, PushBlack also delivers a short, byte-sized series of videos.

There are 68 and counting of the short videos. Of course, I recommend both.
