Gender vs Music, Pt. 2

Get ready for round two, folks! In this week's episode--featuring special guest, Dan of The Last Vestige podcast, we continue our exploration of the gendered (and often whitewashed) history of popular music—but this time, with a spotlight on dance music’s rebellious twists and turns. From the rise of solo dance moves to underground jazz scenes in WWII, we're bringing you the stories that shook the dance floor and challenged the status quo. Ever wondered how Black musicians like Frankie Knuckles, Sybil Herrold, and Larry Levan shaped entire genres, only to have their contributions whitewashed by mainstream culture? Get ready to groove as we uncover the stories of those who revolutionized the dance floor and the airwaves, and how their legacy continues to influence the music we love today.
