Episode Description

Today we're publishing a new collection for subscribers featuring three eyewitness accounts to historical events we often know solely through images or history books. These Radio Diaries are gripping and immersive, with incredible tape that transports a listener from a cursory understanding to one that is rich with individual experience.  We're sharing one of those here: a personal account of surviving the Tulsa Race Riot. 

The art of unscripted audio documentary has been perfected by Joe Richman and the team at Radio Diaries.  For 30 years, this team has encouraged and empowered individuals to report on their own lives.  They work closely with everyday people to document their experience in diary form, and listeners hear actual histories unfiltered by the forces that shape how we collectively remember.  

Check out the full Eyewitness collection at selects.fm or on our channel on Apple Podcasts.
