In this episode, we speak with Tom Weiner and Amilcar Shabazz about their new book In Defiance: 20 Abolitionists You Were Never Taught in School. This book brings to light the often-suppressed stories of those who risked everything to end enslavement. Profiling 20 Black and white men and women, the book highlights their courage, activism, and unwavering commitment to freedom. Through vivid vignettes, including their own words, their struggles and sacrifices come to life.
