Black History Month Special (Part 1)

Two famous 18th century families you never knew were black!

The Black Spy Podcast 215, Season 22, Episode 0006

This week, host Carlton King dives headfirst into the meaning of Black History Month โ€” asking the provocative question: What is "Black History," and why does it matter?

Carlton argues that while race is a biological nonsense, it remains a powerful political reality shaping lives, identity, and history itself. To illustrate this, he exposes the hidden stories of two famous families who, through deliberate "whitening," have had their true African heritage obscured from public view.

Tune in for a thought-provoking exploration of how power, politics, and perception continue to shape the narrative of Black identity.

๐Ÿ” Next week: The investigation continues โ€” Carlton examines who decides who's "Black" and who's "White," and how these definitions have been weaponised throughout history to control the African Diaspora.
