Every Month is Black History Month
Let’s retire Black History Month and incorporate Black history into every year-round history curriculum nationwide.
In the meantime, we’ll listen to some Black musicians who have participated in Centrum programs.
Including:
The Carolina Chocolate Drops, with Joe Thompson
Jerron Paxton and Phil Wiggins
Howard Armstrong
Boo Hanks and Dom Flemons
Lynn August
The Creole Cowboys
and a little bit of Etta Baker
Rhiannon Giddens has been loading one awesome post per day this month on her Facebook page, about Black history in general, highly recommended:

Thanks for listening, have fun!
