In this video I wanted to talk about just how much African Americans not only contributed but literally invent music styles that have come to be known as White American. From Elvis & Frank Sinatra to Scott Joplin, Ella Fitzgerald & Little Richard, Black contributions to American Music & Culture continue to be underappreciated or underrepresented in American history or culture. I also wanted to take the time to talk about WHY i think white Americans end up taking from or appropriating black culture & the American History that led to it.
