In this thought-provoking episode of Black Washed History (formerly The Coin Black History on the Other Side), we delve into two critical yet often misunderstood concepts: white washed and black washed history. Why are some historical events celebrated while others are erased? How do these narratives shape our understanding of the past and impact our present?

Join us as we uncover the origins, implications, and debates surrounding these historical frameworks. From the distortion of Christopher Columbus' story to the powerful reclamation of silenced voices in Black history, this episode explores the importance of striking a balance in storytelling. Discover how we can move toward a more nuanced, inclusive understanding of our shared history.

Don’t just learn history—challenge it. Tune in now and redefine the narrative!
