In this episode, our host, Adam Sanchez, a high school teacher and Rethinking Schools editor, interviews historian Manisha Sinha to address the interracial radical abolition movement of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Sinha emphasizes the impact of Black abolitionists, particularly those who escaped enslavement — like Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, William Wells Brown, and James W.C. Pennington — who radicalized the movement by introducing more militant tactics. She connects the past to the present by discussing the significance of the word abolition in today’s movement for Black lives.

This episode addresses themes of our campaign to Teach Reconstruction.

People's Historians online mini-series - Black Freedom Struggle.
