The more the wealth gap increases and the proletariat's rights get systematically chipped away at, the more we ought to lean on some of history's greatest playbooks for protecting people's rights.
On its face, it's usually easier to "go along to get along," but that sort of attitude isn't only complacent, it's complicit. By reaching back in history, About That Life reminds us that challenging the status quo is the only way to go, if you want to preserve our rights and freedoms and see a people on their way to thriving.
By revisiting the lives of overlooked figures from Black history, Garrison Hayes makes sure we're all tuned into history's most indelible entries.

Sci-Fi author Octavia Butler predicted our dystopian present over 30 years ago, and Garrison and Erika Alexander discuss the power of radical imagination and the lasting impact of her work.
Josh Johnson and Garrison explore the history of iconoclast, comedian, and activist Dick Gregory and how he defined art and comedy as a political tool.
Garrison also unpacks George Washington Williams' groundbreaking work to document a genocide in Congo perpetrated by King Leopold of Belgium with the director of the Decolonial Centre and activist Mohammed Elnaiem.
About That Life is the quintessential look-back on how to harness those streaks of defiance, those moments that organized protest, and study the points in time where a single choice changed the future forever.
