The ‘Beautiful Experiments’ Left Out of Black History | Notes from America with Kai Wright
Host Kai Wright speaks with cultural historian and MacArthur fellow Saidiya Hartman, about her book “Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments: Intimate Histories of Riotous Black Girls, Troublesome Women, and Queer Radicals,” which offers an intimate look into some of the Black lives that have been seemingly erased from the history books -- simply for not fitting into the box. Notes From America with Kai Wright is a show about the unfinished business of our history and how we break its grip on our future. Airing every Sunday at 6PM Eastern, on-air across the country, online at wnyc.org, and available wherever you get your podcasts.
