    In this episode of the History of Being Black podcast, host Dr. Johnathan JeVon White sits down with renowned historian Dr. Marcus Rediker for a powerful conversation about freedom, resistance, and the people history often overlooks. Dr. Rediker shares his unconventional journey into scholarship and explains why “history from below” — the stories of everyday people — is essential to fully understanding the past. The discussion centers on Dr. Rediker’s latest project, Freedom Ship, which uncovers maritime escape routes used by enslaved Africans seeking freedom. He highlights the critical role of port cities, particularly Norfolk, Virginia, as hubs of resistance and collective action. Through compelling stories, including that of Daniel Carr, Dr. Rediker illustrates how organized communities, sailors, and dockworkers helped turn waterways into pathways to liberation. This episode challenges traditional historical narratives and offers a hopeful reminder that resistance has always been a driving force in the fight for freedom — and that these lessons remain deeply relevant to today’s struggles.
