  1. It's important to me to spread the original influences of black genres that have been long suffocated by white corporate record companies. It's sad that people aren't aware of the incredible jazz, funk, soul and the fusions between them in this day and age

  2. So informative ???? A lot of other black cultures like to make African-Americans feel less than and we have so much to be proud of not only for ourselves but because we influence most other black cultures and other cultures as well… It is truly a beautiful thing to understand ??

  3. I was looking for a short summary of African American music for my Black History course. This segement of a series is not short, but it is fabulous, in that it is historically, factually, and cuturally grounded and presented by an knowlegeable sister who knows who she is, as she discloses who we are as a people, nothing less than the rhythmic heart, body, and soul of this country.
