Description
Who Hears Here? brings together leading scholars to examine the expansive histories, evolving forms, and global influence of Black music. Moving across genres, eras, and cultural contexts, the collection explores how Black musical expression reflects identity, memory, struggle, creativity, and community while shaping the sound of the modern world. With attention to both celebrated traditions and overlooked stories, these essays consider who gets heard, who gets remembered, and how listening itself is shaped by power and perspective. Thoughtful and wide-ranging, the volume offers an essential introduction to the enduring cultural significance of Black music in the past and present.
