Songs of the People: Indigenous Roots of Black Folk Music is hosted by Benjamin Mertz, a song leader in the Black Spiritual tradition. The program looks at pre-20th Century Black music as a folk tradition, exploring its connections to its African ancestry and its similarities to the traditional music of the First Nations in North America. With work songs, drum circles, sacred chants, and songs evoking the imagery of rivers and mountains, Black Spiritual music lives hand-in-hand with other Indigenous music traditions.
