  • Summary

  • This is Ashley Newby and you’re listening to The Black Studies podcast, a Mellon grant sponsored series of conversations examining the history of the field. Our conversations engage with a wide range of activists and scholars - senior figures in the field, late doctoral students, and everyone in between, culture workers, and political organizers - in order to explore the cultural and political meaning of Black Studies as an area of inquiry and its critical methods.

    Today's episode features Gerald Horne, who teaches in the Department of History at University of Houston. He has written many scholarly and popular essays on history, race, and politics, and is the author over thirty books including most recently Revolting Capital: Racism & Radicalism in Washington, D.C., 1900-2000 (2023) and The Counter-Revolution of 1836: Texas Slavery & Jim Crow and the Roots of American Fascism (2022), as well as the recently published I Dare Say: A Gerald Horne Reader (2024). In this conversation, we discuss the process of rewriting history from the perspective of African Americans, the impact of that writing on the field of Black Studies, and importance of transnational solidarities for Black liberation struggle.
