How the Word is Passed – Clint Smith
In this Washington Post Live video, Clint Smith discusses his travels to nine sites—from Monticello in Virginia to the Whitney Plantation in Louisiana—to explore how slavery is remembered. Drawing from his book How the Word Is Passed, he reflects on “those telling the truth, those running from it, and those doing something in between” and shares the lessons he learned about confronting America’s history of slavery.
