About this Newsletter
This newsletter began as an outgrowth of History Club, a podcast on the social media app Clubhouse during the Covid-19 pandemic. In the midst of civil unrest and a bitterly contested U. S. Presidential election, History Club became a thoughtful, intellectual space to wrestle with the past and its effects on the present and future.
History Club met weekly, and over time grew into a community of 100,000 people. We hosted conversations on the Civil Rights movement, the filibuster in American history, and teaching the Holocaust on social media, among many topics.
