Description
Originally posted last month to Patreon for February’s bonus episode, in honor of Black History Month, we dive (literally) into an important and heartbreaking story which has been largely lost to time. This week we bring it to the surface, have difficult conversations and discuss the efforts the NPS, independent diving groups and historians have taken to rediscover what was lost to history and to the elements in order to honor its story in the present. Videos discussed in this episode: The Guerrero Project, The Hunt for the Slave Ship Guerrero We love our National Parks and we know you do too but when you're out there, remember to enjoy the view but watch your back.
