Summary

Hey lady! You know we couldn’t end June without getting our groove on to celebrate Black Music month! June is the official month for the songs that have enriched our lives in times of sorrow and joy. Black music has been monumental as a soundtrack for many of the liberation movements for our people and as endearing as spending a Saturday morning helping your mom clean up the house. So, this week Terri and Dr. Dom talk about the beauty of Black music and the way music can transport you to spaces where your imagination can run free, your heart can find comfort, and your feet catch the beat. Spaces where you can mourn the breakup and relationship, the loss of a loved one, or the loss of self. Black people have used our music to keep us moving forward, overcoming and thriving and that is worthy of celebrating!

Listen all the way through for a fun challenge Dr. Dom and Terri have for you and then join us on Instagram and give us your answer. We’re so looking forward to creating a Black music playlist with our community!

Quote of the Day:
“Through every generation, Black music has been our healing, our protest, and our celebration all at once.”
