Slavery has deep roots in 黑料新闻. Enslaved people built much of the foundation of 黑料新闻. But this history isn鈥檛 usually taught in schools.
Today, we listen back to a 黑料新闻 Museum of Culture and History panel discussion about that hidden history featuring 黑料新闻鈥檚 Diane Orson. Diane is the host of Unforgotten: 黑料新闻鈥檚 Hidden History of Slavery.
