Black women have dominated the mainstream stages of American Popular music for almost a century. How can we understand the labor, spirit, and genius that got them there? Building on the exploration of contemporary Black feminist history in Season One, Season Two of the Collected podcast looks again at the brilliant work of African American women, this time through the lens of Black Female musical artists. Over this season’s six episodes, audiences will learn about several core figures spanning genres such as jazz, rock, spirituals, and disco to look at how Black female artists fought their way to the big stages and survived once they arrived there. Curator of Music Dr. Krystal Klingenberg resumes her role as host and producer, taking listeners on a rich musical journey through the lives of women you know, but stories you may not.
