As we continue with Black History Month, the Black History in Two Minutes (or so) podcast & video series is a wonderful resource to learn the full scope of U.S. history, with episodes that can tie into many different subjects, not just history/social studies!
The award-winning show explores important people and events from the past and present. These episodes create more accurate depictions or fill in gaps in our student's knowledge with well-studied events such as the Civil War and school integration (including the central role that Boston played in the 1970s), while also highlighting prominent figures often left out of most history books.
The resource is well suited for educators, too; episodes are short and accessible to a general audience. The series is narrated by Professor Henry Louis Gates and is executive produced by an equally impressive team.
Look for the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Android, and Stitcher.
You can also find it on YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.
