William F. Spivey's History Channel

By William Spivey

Most of my stories invariably return to history, a different perspective, and always in context. A recent story about the Red Summer of 1919 also described 1918-1923. You'll get some politics, education, and race, but history is what I always return to.

William has some of the most fascinating and insightful stories form American history you will ever read.

Michael Moore

I was born in Flint, Michigan and raised on a dirt street by loving parents, two sisters and a lot of Green Giant in a can.

Michael is my friend and brother. We have met many times in person and campaigned across the country together for Bernie back in the day. I respect him and trust his instincts. He has a big heart.
