The African American Folklorist is a focal point for the research, archiving, and raising awareness of African American Traditional Music and the Black Experience!!

Our Podcast provides intellectual conversations, historical facts, and vital coverage of the African American experience that’s been shaped by our community as we work toward a more diverse media outlet, using broadcast journalism, film, and multimedia production, the Tools of the Folklorist, and Ethnography to produce exciting, meaningful, and historically accurate content that raises cultural and ethnic awareness of African American Traditional Music.

The African American Folklorist also plays a significant role in raising awareness of African American Traditional music that dates back to early Black Spirituals and pre-war Blues by highlighting today’s practitioners of the music, as well as tackling the sensitive topics that relate to the Black Experience from the past to the present. Engaging and interactive, The African American Folklorist gives their audience the context in which African American traditions, culture, and social environment are shared through the oral documentation, including, but not limited to, Blues, Black Spirituals, Literature, Vernaculars, and other behaviors and traditional engagement, that reflects the African American community and their different classes throughout history.
