That song reminded us of someone, brought up a memory, inspired us to run a marathon, or made us sit and cry for an hour. But what about the music that changed America as a whole? In this clip from Season Two, Episode One, "Off the Record, Into the Cloud", we discuss the moments in music history that sparked revolutions in our culture, our economy, and our people. (Also, Gabe is hilarious in this one.) ➡️ In this video, we go through all the popular eras of American music, and see how they impacted our history. With the popularization of broadcasting technology, different music genres began to be heard and shared throughout the country. This technology allowed minorities to share their music, giving them a sense of identity. 📺 To watch an entire episode on the fascinating history of the American music industry, and to learn about how it will continue to change and grow, check your local public television listings for air times, or visit www.reconnectingroots.com to watch online! 📖 More of the reading type?
