About this listen

Who was Jean-Charles Houzeau? Was he a light-skinned black man? An olive-skinned white man? Whoever he was, he was a polyglot and an astronomer... and a fervent abolitionist... who traveled to Texas twice in the 19th century. He was on the right side of history even as he worked hard to blend in. From ep. 84 and ep. 85 of Dream Idiots.

New epis every Tuesday-ish. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Hosted by Morris Franklin and Bryan Treat.
