This is History Unmuted.

This podcast exists because history isn’t just about what happened.

It’s about what survived.

What was written down.
 What was preserved.
 What was taught.

And just as importantly — what was skipped over.
 What was condensed.
 What was reframed.
 What was deliberately softened so it could be absorbed without resistance.

Most of us grow up believing history is a fixed record.
 A timeline.
 A series of agreed-upon facts handed down intact.

But history is not neutral.

It never has been.

History is curated.

Every story we inherit passed through human hands.
 Through institutions.
 Through power structures that decided what mattered and what didn’t.

And those decisions didn’t just shape the past.
 They shaped us.

On this show, we explore overlooked moments from America’s past, connect them to systems shaping the present, and talk about history as it’s unfolding right now — before it gets rewritten, sanitized, or selectively remembered.

This isn’t about conspiracy.

It’s about context.

Because once you understand how narratives are formed, you begin to see why certain questions were never asked — and why some answers feel strangely incomplete.

Let’s unmute history.
