About this listen
For decades, the dominant interpretation of Reconstruction came from something called the Dunning School.
Named after William Archibald Dunning (1857-1922), an influential Columbia University historian who taught for more than forty years and served as president of the American Historical Association in 1913.
This school of thought helped shape the modern historical profession in its infancy—and it whitewashed history.
That’s why Black history is not optional. It is corrective.
Learn more about this history in this episode.

During Black History Month, support a Black historian researching Black history.
