NOTES

Originally broadcast on the PBS Network in 2022

Celebrate the vibrant jazz, R&B, and soul music of African American artists who, during segregation, created the foundation of modern American music. Like many other Black Americans, they relied on Victor Hugo Green's Negro Travelers' Green Book, a directory of lodgings, restaurants, and entertainment venues where African Americans were safe and welcomed. Now explore the history of this essential guide with vocalists, musicians, historians, and others who reflect on living through segregation

Darlene Love, Josephine Beavers, Howard Hewett, Little Anthony, Johnny Britt
