Dear Members,
We’re delighted to announce that the latest featured content is now live on Bloomsbury Music and Sound, exploring Black, African, and Afro-Diasporic Music & Sound. From soul to rap, from Los Angeles to Nigeria, explore how Black musicians, artists, and performers develop innovative approaches to music and sound. You can view it here: https://bloomsburymusicandsound.com/featured-content on Bloomsbury Music and Sound: https://bloomsburymusicandsound.com/home.
To celebrate UK Black History Month, and the release of our new subject guide on Black, African, and Afro-Diasporic Music & Sound, our new featured content studies the impact and intersections of diaspora and racism – as well as gender and sexuality – within the music and sonic innovations created by Black artists. View the subject guide here: https://www.bloomsbury.com/media/kjpjjaxg/black-african-and-afro-diasporic-music-sound.pdf
Explore Black, African, and Afro-Diasporic Music & Sound through our new short essay and four free-to-view chapters, including:
- Dance or Die from the 33 1/3 title on Janelle Monae's album The Archandroid, in which author Alyssa Favreau suggests that Monáe reclaims the American Dream in their multiplicity as a Black, queer nonbinary person.
