Book launch for A IS FOR ARETHA

Leslie Kwan, author, Linton Stephens, interviewer

Spotlighting 26 Black women in music, A is for Aretha is a celebration of the contributions they made not only within their industry but also of the social causes that often underpinned their music. Join us as American harpsichordist and author Leslie Kwan and a panel of music colleagues discuss how these women, whose music encouraged joy and self-love, advocated for racial justice, buoyed civil rights protests, and trailblazed paths for Black creatives that are still felt to this day.
