I'm pretty open, and not really looking for anything specific here aside from the usual "no liberal bullshit" rule. I did listen to a bit of Chapo for a hot second in 2018 but I could be persuaded to go back if theyre good.
So to that end, what are your favorite episodes of your podcast of choice?
I really liked their episodes on Black Wall Street:

The podcast is actually a Youtube channel and for these episodes, they reference a map of what happened. This is the report that the maps are from: https://www.okhistory.org/research/forms/freport.pdf
The gist of the episodes is that Black Wall Street actually wasn't self-sufficient and most Black people living in that district were poor workers, but when the massacre happened, the Black people living there weren't helpless victims but actually fought back. The massacre ended when the Black residents regrouped and started shooting back.
The myth does two things: (1) valorizes Black capitalism and (2) portrays Black non-capitalists (ie workers) as completely passive and helpless.
Rock on, sounds good! I'll give it a go!
