Event Details

All are welcome to come and discuss this book. This space is for all readers to share & learn about the Black experience, and discuss books by Black authors that reflect that perspective.

In Black AF History, Michael Harriot presents a more accurate version of American history. Harriot removes the white sugarcoating from the American story, placing Black people squarely at the center. With incisive wit, Harriot speaks hilarious truth to oppressive power, subverting conventional historical narratives with little-known stories about the experiences of Black Americans. From the African Americans who arrived before 1619 to the unenslavable bandit who inspired America’s first police force, this long overdue corrective provides a revealing look into our past that is as urgent as it is necessary.
