The sounds of Black Power are all over the radio airwaves today, thanks to Pat Thomas, editor and curator of Listen, Whitey! The Sights and Sounds of Black Power 1965-1975!
Not only will he be a guest on KEXP this evening at 6:30 PM PT, but you can also hear him across the nation on WNYC's Soundcheck!
He'll be spotlighting Motown Records' obscure subsidiary label Black Forum, formed in the early 70s as an outlet for their political releases, but lost to music history… until now!
Pat will be LIVE on Soundcheck at 2:00 PM ET, and there's several options for listening in:
• NYC: 93.9 FM WNYC (show will repeat at 10:00 PM ET)
• Detroit: 101.9 FM WDET (show will repeat at 10:00 PM ET)
• US: Sirius XM channel 121
• Worldwide: the show will be archived online at WNYC.org
