Hello! In This weeks episode, though short, we look at why Frederick Douglas's image is used to represent both Denmark Vesey and Nat Turner. Due to an error on my part, I was made aware of this issue and started to look into why. This episode highlights the "Reclaiming Black Faces" Project which is linked below.
