About

Celebrate Black History Month with Dahlak Brathwaite through an oral telling of American music through history and American history through music. From gospel to blues, jazz to R&B, America has produced some of the most innovative music of the 20th century. Although the songs are easy on the ears, their inception occurred in cultural climates that were often discordant. Author and performer Dahlak Brathwaite uses spoken word poetry & hip hop to narrate the sometimes tense, sometimes strained history of our nation. His musical chronicle shows that despite conflict and misunderstanding, we can still be brilliantly creative. All roles in Adapting History are played by Dahlak.
