Journalist and cultural critic Michael Harriot flips the script on American history, centering Black voices and experiences too often erased. With wit and rigor, he delivers a bold retelling that reframes the nation's story.

Why We Picked It: Because history should be unfiltered, and Harriot writes with both truth and fire — exactly the kind of voice that's been missing from too many bookshelves for too long.
