Show Notes

Lize Burr Led a discussion on Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Annette Gordon-Reed’s book On Juneteenth. Born and raised in Texas, Gordon-Reed recounts a version of history largely absent from those the state has traditionally told about itself. Our discussion will focus on new ways—not just new things— we can learn about history, using On Juneteenth‘s masterful blend of history and personal reflection as a model. If you don’t have time to read On Juneteenth, which is quite brief, this interview serves as a helpful introduction.
