So I'm watching the Chris Rock comedy special (apparently first out in 2004) and he is telling jokes about the lasting consequences of slavery, but all I can think about is how many questions I'm going to get in my survey class next semester about whether or not slaves who could read got killed.
Watch the Chris Rock history lesson on youtube.com.
Is it good or bad when popular actors/comedians, etc. talk about American history?

Dear Dr. History,
I apologize for using your comments form to contact you. i was curious to know if you had heard of Tony Horwitz and his book on early American explorers, A Voyage Long and Strange.
I am working with him and thought you might like to receive some further information or a copy of the book. I would love to hear from you.
Sincerely,
Jeffery Anderson
