Red, White, and Black

Rescuing American History from Revisionists and Race Hustlers

By: Robert L. Woodson

Narrated by: Calvin Robinson

Length: 7 hrs and 1 min

Publisher's Summary

An indispensable corrective to the falsified version of Black history presented by The 1619 Project, radical activists, and money-hungry “diversity consultants".

In the rush to redefine the place of Black Americans in contemporary society, many radical activists and academics have mounted a campaign to destroy traditional American history and replace it with a politicized version that few would recognize. According to the new radical orthodoxy, the United States was founded as a racist nation - and everything that has happened throughout our history must be viewed through the lens of the systemic oppression of Black people. Rejecting this false narrative, a collection of the most prominent and respected Black scholars and thinkers has come together to correct the record and tell the true story of Black Americans in all its complexity, diversity of experience, and poignancy. Collectively, they paint a vivid picture of Black people living the grand American experience, however bumpy the road may be along the way. But rather than a people apart, Blacks are woven into the united whole that makes this nation unique in history.

1776 United

Red, White, and Black uses 20 essays by Black American leaders to debunk the 1619 Project which was written by journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones in the New York Times Magazine. The magazine devoted an entire addition to the 1619 Project. This book exposes the 1619 project for the misinterpretation that it is. Author Robert L Woodson Sr.founded the oppositional (to the 1619 Project) 1776 United group of Black voices. Calvin Robinson does a great job of narrating. I recommend Red, White, and Black.

Really?

This is basically what would happen if Uncle Ruckus made a book. The points made here are absolutely silly and I get second-hand embarrassment from the rudimentary “counters” to common narratives that lack depth, understanding, and nuance.

“They try to say the police are racist but actually did you know black people commit way more crime?” Lmfaooooo - The person doesn’t bother to address WHY that is, nor do they seem to know or care that this talking point is extremely tired and has been contextualized to demonstrate why that is many times over in this day and age.

If you’re a Candace Owens fan, you’ll love this book. I do not mean that in a nice way. You can have an appreciation for country and an identity rooted in self determination without believing some of the absolute nonsense spewed in this book.

Life changing!

This powerful book can change and save lives. Must Read!! I went in expecting it to be good. Ended up being blown away!

Very informative

You can't get these stories just listening to the media. I love this book

Thank you !!

One of the most informative fact based books I’ve ever read or listened to !! Loved it from the start to the finish !!

inspiring

Much needed information that is not widely known or is ignored by main stream press.

The Best Combination of Black Scholarship

This work by moderate and conservative black leaders in business, policy, and philosophy is the perfect counterbalance to the reductive racialism of as Critical Race Theory activists. As noted in every chapter, the goal is to tell the full story of Black victory over slavery and segregation, rather than crafting a victimhood narrative that excuses internal faults and belittles the value of self discipline.

Not sure what they were doing.

This book misses the whole point of the 1619 project. It does not refute any of the facts found in the 1619 project. It gives the opinions of those that were involved. Now I know their opinions, their opinions add no constructive ideals to the conversation.

True honesty

having grown up in the '60s this book opens eyes that weren"t closed., just wanting real answers. This book is factual, & exposes how bondage kept the black race down through legal hand outs which demoralizes human dignity. As a middle-class white child both parents worked to get us in better schools. opening up free services only helped put the races further in bondage, Listen to the credits ., and read.. because I struggled with education I slipped through the cracks but never gave up. Thank you Mr Woodson

Black thinking for black success. Love for others.

Incredible book on proper thinking for a person who is of color. Wonderfully edited and compiled.
