Last week, we shared stories regarding much of mainstream country music's history or racism and the erasure of Black contributions. Today, we encourage you to explore the Black Opry to see how young African-American artists are helping to reshape country music. #BlackOpry #countrymusic #blackroots

My bad, I probably started listening to music. One year I was Mavis Staples wine runner as a volunteer, got to serve Emmylou Harris and Vince Gill among others in the hospitality tent. Just the most chill event ever even with 750,000 over 3 days.
