Juneteenth (Playlist)
A Soundtrack for Juneteenth
There’s been a lot of conversation about Juneteenth and how to celebrate it. Black Americans have been saying they feel like event organizers and DJs don’t know the history of Juneteenth or understand that it’s a Black American holiday. Black American musicians paved the way for what we now think of as American music. So if you don’t know what to play on Juneteenth, here’s something to get you started.
