The Black Explorer Erased From History

Season 1 Episode 7 | 13m 07s

In 1909, the North Pole was at the center of a heated controversy: Who had made it there first, Robert Peary or Frederick Cook? But overlooked in the debate was a third explorer, a Black man named Matthew Henson. In The Margins is a series that covers the history they didn’t teach in school, exploring obscure, yet captivating tales that offer unique insights into their time and place.
