This season, we talk to an original member of the Black Panther Party. We explore the extremely contradictory life of longtime FBI director J. Edgar Hoover. We talk to Smithsonian curators about the historical connection of Disneyland to American identity. Plus, we cover topics including censorship, fast fashion, women in journalism, PTSD, Internet hackers, and more.
History is full of gems to discover and pitfalls to avoid. But you wouldn’t know it when sitting in a high school history class. That’s why we created UnTextbooked, a history podcast for the future. We’re a group of high school and college students from across the country. We're here to show young people that history is more than just what we learn in schools. It's exciting, scary, creative, nuanced and surprising.
