    The Stories of History Everyone Should Know.
    I love hearing the stories I never heard in school.

    Justice for Congo
    Just finished listening to The Scramble for Africa & Congo’s Genocide. I’ve been advocating for the people of Congo but wasn’t sure where to look for a comprehensive breakdown on the history leading to the current exploitation of the Congolese people. This episode was incredibly thorough, a ton of info organized so well that it didn’t feel overwhelming to digest. My heart is with the people of the Congo, for what they face now and what they’ve endured for over 100 years. Thank you for this phenomenal history lesson! Can’t wait to listen to more 🖤🇨🇩

    The truth of American history
    Brilliant podcast about American history, no fluff.
  • OnlineProfessor
    Keep SHINING!
    This podcast is everything it should be: informative, fair, and a light that shines in the little known caves of history. When we learn our history/the past, we can better understand the present and prepare for the future. Keep SHINING, André!
  • Duranchula20
    Very interesting episodes that brings in personal background of historical figures
    This is my favorite podcast I listen to. I would love to hear an episode on Barack Obama and nelson mandela.
  • yippeekiyaymf!
    The racists in the comments are proving the show’s entire point
    The bad reviews you’re seeing are indicative of Andre’s brilliance. He’s not afraid to tell the truth— and apparently, people get reaaaaaaal butt hurt about the truth. Meanwhile, our host Mr. White exceeds expectations as a consummate storyteller and researcher and offers keen insight to the pieces of history we’re all missing. Facts matter, as it turns out!
  • Jay C W
    So anyone who's not black is racist?
    This entire podcast is a complete joke. The creator literally portrays anyone who isn't black as a racist. Complete Victim Delusion
  • AF71
    Excellent history podcast
    I am a history buff and read voraciously. I recently found this podcast and thoroughly enjoy listening to it. I have learned so much.
  • AMF05262022
    Wish I found this sooner!
    I have been wanting to find a podcast so I could learn some history that explains current events, so I’m very glad I found this podcast. The host Andre does a great job of going through the history- plenty of detail, but not too much to be excessively long and drag on.
  • IS Hubbard
    Great show
    Great show with good content. We need more shows like this that give real history.
  • Katrina8318
    Book Recommendations
    Your podcasts are incredible! I highly recommend your suggest more books. The Nickle Boys is a great read! I couldn't put the book down.
  • Sleepy5417
    Keep Going!
    The day I found this podcast, I found myself listening to one episode and just let it play the whole catalog. Next thing I knew I was looking all the historical events Andre spoke on. I Love It Here!

    Exceptional
    I was a dedicated loyal supporter and will continue to be, as it’s hard to find exceptional and candid take in history! Thanks!
  • Sae Mae
    Real and raw
    This is true unfiltered history. Something that the American education system lacks.
  • André Marcel Harris
    A shift?
    I was a dedicated, loyal supporter and listener. Some of the recent comments on X turned me off.
  • TaulaMac
    Binge worthy podcast
    I’ve been listening to these episodes back to back to back! I really enjoy this perspective of history and his delivery is entertaining!
  • Swimcat18
    Great Podcast
    I love this podcast. I went to school for history and I love learning about all the untold stories and untold perspectives!!! Also your voice is very soothing and calming. 10/10 recommend to anyone with an interest in history.
  • Ashwil14
    Great Learning Pod
    One of my favorite podcasts, hands-down! A deep dive into history, especially history that is often overlooked, ignored and downright redacted.
  • CJLeo!
    Great podcast
    Important storytelling, beautifully told.
  • fatstuffalicious
    Informative + humanity restoring
    God bless you/May the masses protect you for the Emmitt Till story. It really was not that long ago, and it’s such a heartbreaking, mind bogglingly violent story of barbaric privilege. This podcast is so well-researched. It’s informative without being clinical. Nay, I would argue a good job is done reminding us of our humanity! thoughtful enough to serve also as a guide to maybe how not to be an a-hole without being preachy/snarky. Gosh it’s good.
  • Two Spirit 🪶🪶
    Thank you.
    As a Trans Two Spirit I very much appreciate you doing the research to speak about one of our great Transcestors, Mother Marsha “Pay it no Mind” Johnson.
  • BlessedNB1304

    Excellent!
    Andre relates all the interesting details that help us put ourselves in the situation of the individual being highlighted in the episode. I completely agree that learning the history of whites in public school is an incomplete education. So much more interesting to know the full history and know all the brave black men and women who did the right thing even though their country didn’t respect them.
  • nursebecky2006
    LOVE THIS!!!
    Bravo to Andre for presenting this amazing informative podcast! I AM HOOKED!! This is better than any history class! I’m all in! Thank you thank you for educating us whom never heard the truth growing up in the United States in the 70s and 80s!
  • Jane.e.Nevins
    Top 5 history podcast
    I listen to a lot of history podcasts and this is one of my favorites. The host is engaging and the writing is always interesting with good pacing. The show is well researched and offers anecdote to the saccharine history that is so often distorted to reflect the views of people in power. Whether you’re a serious American history aficionado or a casual listener looking to learn something and be entertained, check out this show.
  • Jaden2K3
    Best history podcast I’ve found yet
    As a fellow Black scholar pursuing a degree in history, i find it great that there is a podcast that delves into the history that our education systems deem “less than relevant”. André White, a historian and man to emulate.
  • ZelleyZelle
    More, please!
    I love it!! I like that the episodes are shorter…pushes me to do my own research.
  • ApplePaltrow
    Not It
    I thought that they were gonna talk about Charlie xcx but no it’s all this black stuff
  • Rileyyrainboww
    You make history enjoyable to learn!
    I wish the episodes were a little longer tho cause I need alllll the deets 😅
  • _lynnking
    Love this podcast
    I need longer episodes sir
  • c.s.s.77
    engaging and informative
    you can tell he really cares about the podcast and sheds light on history that is not taught in school! every time i listen to an episode, even if i am familiar with the topic, i always learn something new. everyone needs to listen to this podcast to learn more about black history around the world.
  • The_Tardigrade
    Redacted? More like revised.
    This is not history. This is a person twisting history to push a narrative.
  • Different_Drummer
    Needed to be said but…
    Well researched stories from history that have for the most part been papered over and need to be told. However this podcast tends to view too much of current events from a perspective of racism. I believe the truth is a complex mosaic of poverty, oppression, victimization, institutionalization, distrust, identity, disrespect, and yes, racism. These issues can only be addressed through understanding and acceptance of the complete picture, and I don’t see that here.
  • RGKKW
    Excellent storytelling
    I love learning all the history that was left out of the traditional American education. Vital podcast if you want to better understand the forces that have brought us to our current state. Leaving this review as a birthday gift for Dr. Andre.
  • Push Forward Equipped
    Gettysburg
    Another great episode, clear concise and was to understand.
  • Definitely12!
    Thank you for your research!!
    Thank you for making this podcast available. I don’t make time to research and understand the facts about our history but I appreciate it being packaged in such way that I can listen, learn and forward episodes to others. Your efforts are appreciated!!
  • gooooooothemile
    Great Listen
    I truly enjoy listening to the podcast. The history shared is not always mainstream and you learn something new. The speaker does a great job with storytelling.
  • Anon77777777
    Truly compelling history podcast
    I was hooked almost instantly. Fascinating subject matter and incredibly listenable narration. I tend to prefer conversation-style podcasts because narrated ones sometimes lack personality, but that certainly isn’t the case here. It feels like the audio track to a very well-made documentary.
  • Bob history
    Filling in history
    These podcasts provide additional information of events that is critical to a true understanding of our history.
  • Alicia Cristina
    Exceptional
    I desired education through honest eyes and you guys have delivered. Most information you share, I’ve never heard. Thank you.
  • Llpmd123
    Great listen
    So well told and captivating. Great podcast!
  • Tankie's Mom
    Informative without being harsh
    The podcast is fantastic. I am a black woman that wants to hear about my history but afraid of the negative feelings that I get after hearing the injustice and cruelty imposed on blacks. I have to interact with whites and I just don’t want hate in my heart. Not necessarily for them but for their ancestors. However, this podcast explains history in a story like way without harsh words or making me feel some type of way. I actually laugh at some of the comments. I am so glad I downloaded this podcast and enjoy listening about people I’ve never heard of or the untold stories of the once’s I do. ❤️🔥
  • Precious Teacup
    The only podcast I follow faithfully
    Learning about this enlighten brother from tik tok, I am always learning something new from his channel and his podcast. Just when I thought I knew what I knew, Mr Andre always take it a step further. I can listen to this podcast all day long and just engulf knowledge of our history. Please keep up the good work !
