Description

"Most of the violence that has been committed on this continent has been committed by white people." We've all seen the Montgomery Melee, the Alabama Beatdown, or the Bama Brawl at that riverfront in Montgomery, Alabama. It was a sight to see, but there is more to it than you think. Michael Harriot is here to tell you the historical significance of that beatdown. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How in the world did we get here? Wypipologist Michael Harriot breaks it all down in TheGrio Daily.

The journalist, poet, author, TV writer, and Black Twitter King does not hold back when he explains the systems and issues that affect Black people daily. From white supremacy, police brutality, and gun violence, Michael Harriot is not afraid to say the quiet part out loud.  TheGrio Daily is an original podcast by TheGrio Black Podcast Network.
