Description

In this week's episode the fellas continue their celebration of Black History Month with and in-depth look at The Chitlin' Circuit. The Chitlin' Circuit was a series of venues predominantly in the South. These venues were mostly black owned and operated and provided a place for black musicians to play during Jim Crow while they were excluded from many of the nations white owned venues. The Chitlin' Circuit is another example of how black people in America used art, creativity, and entrepreneurship as a form of resistance. We hope you enjoy learning about the background of The Chitlin' Circuit and hear some of its greatest performers.
